This sections describes how to change the Intel driver bundle version.
|
|
Currently there are 3 CVL versions available:
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
The |NIC| firmware (NVM) has to align with one of the selected driver
|
|
bundles listed below.
|
|
|
|
- ``cvl-4.0.1`` (default)
|
|
- ice: 1.9.11 / Required NVM/firmware: 4.20 or 4.22 (Intel E810)
|
|
- i40e: 2.20.12 / Required NVM/firmware: 8.70 or 9.20
|
|
- iavf: 4.5.3.2
|
|
|
|
.. Reverted ice driver to 1.5.8
|
|
|
|
- ``cvl-2.54`` (legacy)
|
|
- ice: 1.5.8 / Required NVM/firmware: 2.54
|
|
- i40e: 2.14.13 / Required NVM/firmware: 8.21 or 8.24
|
|
- iavf: 4.0.1
|
|
|
|
- ``cvl-4.10`` (latest)
|
|
- ice driver: 1.10.1.2 / Required NVM/firmware: 4.10 (Silicom STS2) / 4.10 (Intel E810)
|
|
- i40e driver: 2.21.12 / Required NVM/firmware: 9.10
|
|
- iavf driver: 4.6.1
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
`cvl-4.10`` is only recommended if the Silicom STS2 card is used.

Change Intel Multi-driver Version
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
On initial installation, the system will use the default driver bundle version
|
|
which is ``cvl-4.0.1``. The chosen driver bundle will be applied subsequently
|
|
as part of the deployment configuration, if specified.
|
|
|
|
When there is no driver bundle specified as part of the deployment, the system
|
|
will continue to use the default driver bundle.
|
|
|
|
For example to change the driver bundle to the legacy version, add the system
|
|
service parameter ``intel_nic_driver_version`` to ``cvl-2.54``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-add platform config intel_nic_driver_version=cvl-2.54
|
|
|
|
|
|
To change the driver bundle back to the default version, there are two options:
|
|
|
|
#. Modify the system service parameter ``intel_nic_driver_version`` to
|
|
``cvl-4.0.1``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-modify platform config intel_nic_driver_version=cvl-4.0.1
|
|
|
|
#. Apply the service parameter change.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-apply platform
|
|
Applying platform service parameters
|
|
|
|
#. Remove the system service parameter ``intel_nic_driver_version``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-list --service platform --section config --name intel_nic_driver_version
|
|
+--------------------------------------+------------+---------+---------------------------+-----------+-------------+----------+
|
|
| uuid | service | section | name | value | personality | resource |
|
|
+--------------------------------------+------------+---------+---------------------------+-----------+-------------+----------+
|
|
| 84306212-d96d-4a2a-8cc0-2d48781e006c | platform | config | intel_nic_driver_version | cvl-2.54 | None | None |
|
|
+--------------------------------------+------------+---------+---------------------------+-----------+-------------+----------+
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-delete 84306212-d96d-4a2a-8cc0-2d48781e006c
|
|
|
|
To apply the service parameter change, all hosts need to be locked and
|
|
unlocked for each host depending on the deployed configuration, using the
|
|
following commands.
|
|
|
|
For |AIO-SX| deployments:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-lock controller-0
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-unlock controller-0
|
|
|
|
For |AIO-DX| and Standards deployments, after controller-1 is locked/unlocked
|
|
swact controller-0 to make controller-1 the active node. The next set of
|
|
commands are executed on controller-0 node:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-lock controller-1
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-unlock controller-1
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-swact controller-0
|
|
|
|
On controller-1, after controller-0 is locked/unlocked swact controller-1 to go
|
|
back to controller-0 as the active node. The next set of commands are executed
|
|
on controller-1 node:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-lock controller-0
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-unlock controller-0
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-swact controller-1
|
|
|
|
For each worker node in the configuration execute the commands from
|
|
controller-0:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-lock worker-0
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system host-unlock worker-0
|
|
|
|
To verify the current Intel driver version use ``ethtool -i`` on the desired
|
|
Intel network interface. For example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ ethtool -i ens785f0 | egrep '^(driver|version):'
|
|
driver: i40e
|
|
version: 2.20.12
|
|
|
|
Upgrades
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
For an upgrade, the default drivers will be configured after the upgrade.
|
|
To set the non-default drivers for an upgrade, set the driver bundle on
|
|
controller-0 prior to the upgrade. For example, to set legacy drivers use the
|
|
following commands:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-add platform config intel_nic_driver_version=cvl-2.54 --resource platform::compute::grub::params::g_intel_nic_driver_version
|
|
~(keystone_admin)$ system service-parameter-apply platform
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
After the upgrade is completed, all hosts need to be locked and unlocked to
|
|
load the non-default drivers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Backup and Restore
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
In case a Backup and Restore is performed, after unlocking the host during a
|
|
restore operation, the system will be configured with the correct multi-driver
|
|
version, but the drivers will be loaded to the default version.
|
|
|
|
To load the drivers to the correct configured version a second host-unlock will
|
|
be needed.
