The Linux driver for Emulex LightPulse Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) from the Emulex Corporation (Costa Mesa, CA) is now part of the new Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 distribution. Emulex LightPulse HBA customers should benefit from new virtualization, clustering, and manageability enhancements that are available.
 
Key features include virtualization support ensuring interoperability with the Xen 3.0 server module, clustering support with multipathing compatibility, and increased manageability by fully implementing “sysfs” permitting third-party applications to collect HBA subsystem information.
