27. Complete the installation and reboot the system. Make sure you do not update the
grub package using Ubuntu updates.
Citrix XenServer
To use the P420m/P320h as a boot device in XenServer, only one drive can be used to
store the operating system during the installation. The installation process may not
work correctly if there are two or more drives installed.
Note: The support pack includes several ISO images; make sure to select the image that
matches the build ID of your system. The driver will not install correctly if the wrong
ISO image is used.
To find the build ID of your system:
1. In XenCenter, click XenServer Host.
2. Click the General tab.
3. Scroll down and expand Version Details to view the build number. The last six dig-
its of the ISO name corresponds to the build ID.
To use the P420m/P320h as a boot device in XenServer:
1. Copy the mtip32xx iso image file that is used to load the driver on the XenServer to
a USB device.
2. Boot from the XenServer CD/DVD.
3. When prompted to load a device driver, press F9 and load the mtip32xx iso image
from the USB device.
4. Remove the USB device.
5. Press Ctrl+Alt+F2 to open a terminal.
6. Locate the major number of the P420m/P320h drive through a shell:
[root@localhost ~]# Is -lh /dev/rssda
brw-rw----. 1 root disk 252, 0 Jun 10 18:14 /dev/rssda
In this example, the major number is 252.
7. Edit the /opt/xensource/installer/diskutil.py file using an editor of your choice
and add P420m/P320h to the disk_nodes variable in /opt/xensource/installer/
diskutil.py (between the device nodes /dev/ida and /dev/rd), replacing <ma-
jor_num> with the number you obtained in step 6:
disk_nodes +=[ (<major_num>, x*16) for x in range (16) ]
8. Save and exit.
9. Start the installation by entering the following command:
#/opt/xensource/installer/init
10. Continue the installation and select the P420m/P320h device node (for exam-
ple, /dev/rssda) as a disk for virtual machine storage when prompted.
11. Select Yes for supplemental pack installation.
12. After the preinstallation step is complete, provide the supplemental pack (for ex-
ample, oem:mtip32xx 6.1.0-59235p) when prompted by inserting the USB device
again and locating the mtip32xx driver.
13. After the mtip32xx driver is installed, select SKIP when prompted for additional
supplemental packs.
14. Installation is complete when the installer ends at the shell.
15. Enter the reboot command to boot the XenServer.
