Greetings,

I have a few Brocade 815 Fibre Channel HBA's  that I was planning to use
on my oVirt nodes.
While the kernel module for these HBA's (bfa) is included the firmware
also needed is not.

I added them to one node by just remounting the root-filesystem as
read-write and copied the files to /lib/firmware.
These files does however not survive a reboot. Anyone knows where to
place them in order to make them stay permanently ?

Furthermore,  would it be possible to consider adding these as standard ?

There seem to be already existing fedora packages, I used this package
to extract the files before adding them to the node.

With kind regards,
Jonas

Looks like its just a blacklisting problem. We install bfa-firmware but only keep some of the actual files.

As a workaround you can edit common-minimizer.ks and add these lines and build the iso yourself. I'll be submitting a patch shortly and hopefully should make the 3.0 beta/release here soon.

keep /lib/firmware/cbfw.bin
keep /lib/firmware/ct2fw.bin
keep /lib/firmware/ctfw.bin
