NAME
       emlxs - Emulex-Sun LightPulse Fibre Channel host bus adapter driver

SYNOPSIS
       SUNW,emlxs

DESCRIPTION
       The  emlxs  host	 bus  adapter driver is a Sun Fibre  Channel transport
       layer-compliant nexus driver for the Emulex Light-Pulse family of Fibre
       Channel adapters. These adapters support Fibre Channel SCSI and IP Pro‐
       tocols, FC-AL public loop profile, point-to-point fabric connection and
       Fibre Channel service classes two and three.

       The  emlxs driver interfaces with the Sun Fibre Channel transport layer
       to support the standard functions provided by the  SCSA	interface.  It
       supports	 auto request sense and tagged queueing by default. The driver
       requires that all devices have  unique hard addresses in	 private  loop
       configurations.	Devices with conflicting hard addresses are not acces‐
       sible.
