Ed,
I asked Symantec about this and was told
the issue will be resolved in NBU 7 with the new version of Windows PE 2.1. The
new version of PE will support the newer QLogic drivers.

- QLogic SAN driver incompatabilities
Been
getting this error message for a while now in the BMR info collection phase of
backups for servers running QLOGIC SAN drivers:
“Received BMR error: The driver 'QLogic Fibre Channel Adapter', of
Version '9.1.8.17' is not compatible with WindowsPE. You may need
to create a driver package using an earlier version of the driver that
was WindowsPE compatible. (1)”
Other
than back-leveling the QLOGIC drives on SAN-connected servers, has anyone found
a way around this error so the QLOGIC drivers
get
installed along with the all the other drivers during the BMR recovery???
And just as an FYI: We have so far been unable to find a way to reconnect
“data-loaded” SAN LUNS to BMR recovered servers without
being forced to format the LUNS at reconnect time. That is another
interesting situation, after the QLOGIC drivers have been manually
re-installed following the BMR recovery.
We
are running NBU 6.5.5. on Windows 64-bit Master Servers.
Thanks
Much,
Ed
