Installing and Removing the MZ510 Driver on the OS
The MZ510 driver varies according to OSs. The following describes how to install the MZ510 driver in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 11 and Windows Server 2008.
- Installing or uninstalling the Emulex NIC driver takes effect for all NICs with the Emulex chip on the server.
- Before installing the MZ510 driver, check the version mapping table to confirm the driver compatible with the current firmware.
- After upgrading the MZ510 firmware, upgrade the NIC, FC/FCoE, and iSCSI drivers by referring to the version mapping table.
SLES 11
For details about how to download the driver software package, see Installing Drivers and Firmware > Preparing for Installation in Huawei Server OS Installation Guide.
The MZ510 driver used in SLES 11 is divided into Ethernet (be2net) and FC (lpfc). Run the modinfo command to view the driver version information, as shown in Figure 4-62.
To install the MZ510 driver in SLES 11, perform the following steps:
- Copy the driver packages (.tat.gz files) to the OS, for example, Ethernet driver package elx-be2net-dd-4.6.348.0-1-1.tar.gz, and FC driver package elx-lpfc-dd-sles11sp-8.3.7.18-1-1.tar.gz.
- Decompress the driver packages, and check that two directories are generated, for example, /elx-be2net-dd-4.6.348.0 and /elx-lpfc-dd-sles11sp-8.3.7.18-1.
- Access the be2net and lpfc driver file directories, and run the driver installation files (.sh).
#./elx_net_install.sh #./elx_lpfc_install.sh
To uninstall the MZ510 driver from SLES 11, perform the following steps:
- Access the be2net and lpfc driver file directories, and run the driver installation files (.sh) with the -u parameter.
#./elx_net_install.sh -u #./elx_lpfc_install.sh -u
Windows

The MZ510 driver in Windows is divided into Ethernet (nic), FC (fc), and FCoE (fcoe).
To install the driver files on the Windows GUI, double-click the files.
To install driver files on the Windows Server 2012 R2 CLI, perform the following steps:
- Prepare the driver package.
On the CLI, mount the driver package and copy the driver files to a specified folder.
Figure 4-64 Copying the driver files to a specified folder - Unpack the drivers.
Unpack the be3_lancer_nic_11.1.243.0-2.exe, be3_lancer_fcoe_11.1.145.16-47.exe, and be3_iscsi_11.1.185.0-23.exe drivers as examples.
Here describes how to unpack the NIC driver as an example:
- Run the be3_lancer_nic_11.1.243.0-2.exe command to unpack the drivers.Figure 4-65 Unpacking the drivers
- In the displayed. Click Next.Figure 4-66 Emulex NIC kit 11.1.243.0-2
- Select Unpack All Drivers and click Install.Figure 4-67 Installation options
- Click Finish.Figure 4-68 Installation completed
- Run the be3_lancer_nic_11.1.243.0-2.exe command to unpack the drivers.
- Install the drivers.
- Switch to the directory where INF files are stored after the decompression.Figure 4-69 Switching to the directory where INF files are stored after the decompression
- Run the pnputil -i -a xxx.inf to install a corresponding driver.
xxx.inf indicates the driver file.

- Switch to the directory where INF files are stored after the decompression.
To uninstall the driver from Windows, perform the following steps:
- Open the Device Manager window.
- Double-click the MZ510 port.
- Select Driver in the displayed window, Click Uninstall.
