Installing the eeE Driver for UnixWare* 7

For maximum system stability, it is recommended that all network adapters be configured with the same driver type (i.e. either all eeE (DDI7) or all eeE8 (DDI8)). To use the teaming and VLAN features of your Intel adapter, you will need to install DDI8 on all adapters that will use iANS.

  1. Copy the eeE.pkg file into any directory on the UnixWare system, such as in the /tmp directory.

  2. Make sure no other users are logged on and all user applications are closed.

  3. If there is an older version of the eeE driver on the system, first run 'netcfg' and remove any configured NICs. Exit 'netcfg'. 

  4. Install the new driver using 'pkgadd'. For example:

    # pkgadd -d /tmp/eeE.pkg

  5. Run 'netcfg' to add and configure the NICs. 

    NOTE:  Any Teaming (ANS) options shown are not valid for this driver. The DDI 8 driver must be used for teaming. 

  6. Reboot the system.

NOTE: If you require Hot Plug PCI capabilities, the DDI 8 eeE driver must be used. The DDI 8 driver is supported on UnixWare 7.1.0 and later versions. For more information about Hot Plug PCI capabilities please refer to SCO UnixWare 7 documentation.
