Only if you have either the "QLogic Fibre Channel HBA Driver" or the
"Adaptec aic94xx SAS/SATA" driver in your server.
Unless you're using these two, this has no impact. And if you did
have one of these, it wouldn't already be working for you, since you
still don't have the requisite firmware to load, even with your
existing kernel.
Thanks Sam. I appreciate it. I assumed the same but wanted to get
feedback.
