Hi all,

I'm in the process of adding SAN capability to my RS6000 Wide Silver node TSM 
server (AIX 433-09, TSM 4.2.1.8)
As part of this I'd like to switch some TSM backups from the general network to 
IP over the san.
This will take the router out of the equation and get our backups back into 
their window.

Problem is that I can't find any IP drivers for the FC adapter ( 2Gb adapter 
for 64 bit PCI bus type 4-W).  My research indicates that I need to go away 
from the IBM supplied drivers and install Emulex ones.

Has anyone got this working, and if so how?
