Hi,

have the same setup (Xen 3.0.3 qla2xxx) and i have found out that you dont need the firmware. If the driver doesnt find the firmware it copys it from the adapter.
So it should work without (as for me):
qla2xxx 0000:07: 00.0: Found an ISP2432, irq 20, iobase 0xffffc20000016000
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Configuring PCI space...
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Configure NVRAM parameters...
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Verifying loaded RISC code...
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Firmware image unavailable.
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Firmware images can be retrieved from: ftp://ftp.qlogic.com/outgoing/linux/firmware/.
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Attempting to load (potentially outdated) firmware from flash.
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Allocated (64 KB) for EFT...
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Allocated (1413 KB) for firmware dump...
qla2xxx 0000:07: 00.0: Waiting for LIP to complete...
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: LIP reset occured (f8f7).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: LOOP UP detected (4 Gbps).
qla2xxx 0000:07:00.0: Topology - (F_Port), Host Loop address 0x0

What i have done (perhaps) different is that i boot from the SAN device and i have activated the apropriate button in the controller bios. So, flash you controller with the actual firmware and forget the error message.

regards Martin
