Network Requirements
- BRU Server requires firewall access through ports 14441 to 14450 for bi-direcional TCP traffic on
both the server and client systems.
- Red Hat's Enterprise Linux 4 release has device issues in the generic SCSI layer (which BRU Server
uses), therefore RHEL4 is not supported as a server system. We do support RHEL4 as a client
system. If you wish to stay with a Red Hat style system for your environment, we recommend the use
of the Fedora Core 4 release with a 2.4.30+ or 2.6.12+ kernel installed as your BRU Server server system.
- If you must use a 2.6 kernel, nothing prior to 2.6.11 is supported and we recommend that
you either implement a Linux system that will allow you to run a 2.4.24+ series kernel or use the latest
2.6 kernel (currently 2.6.21).
Information on running multiple kernels on one system is available at The
Tape Device Certification Site.
The latest Linux kernel information is always available from The
Linux Kernel Archives site. |
