Yes, most people do. :)

Sorry, somehow I must've missed that you were using a fibre
channel attached storage. The hbaping should work. It apparently
depends on a library (forgot the name), but looks like you're
already past that. Hope that you're OK once those compile
problems are resolved. There's no way around recompiling
packages.
