******************************************************* IBM SCSI-2 Fast PCI-Bus Adapter Support Diskette ******************************************************* This README file contains instructions for installing the IBM* SCSI-2 Fast PCI adapter device drivers for Novell** Netware** Versions 3.1X and 4.0 or later, Windows NT**, OS/2* 2.X, or the DOS/Windows 3.1 ASPI manager driver and/or CD-ROM device driver and CD file system extensions. It is recommended that you print this README file prior to installing the files. Note: For standard DOS/Windows 3.1 SCSI hard disk support, no device drivers are required, the SCSI-2 Fast PCI adapter BIOS provides SCSI hard disk support automatically. The DOS/Windows 3.1 ASPI manager driver is only required to be installed if devices other than hard disks are being attached to the SCSI-2 adapter and ASPI device specific drivers have been supplied with those devices or have been obtained from another source. __________________________________________________________ Installing DOS/Windows 3.1 ASPI Manager and CD-ROM Support ---------------------------------------------------------- Use the instructions in this section if you have non-hard disk SCSI devices to install which have ASPI compliant device drivers. 1. Turn on the display and system unit. Wait for the DOS prompt. 2. Insert the IBM SCSI-2 Fast PCI Bus Adapter Device Drivers Diskette which contains the IBMASPCI.SYS driver and other files required for DOS/Windows support into the diskette drive. 3. Type the following: copy a:\IBMASPCI.SYS c:\ and then press Enter. To include support for IBM CD-ROM drives, also type the following: copy a:\IBMPCICD.SYS c:\ and then press Enter. copy a:\MSCDEX.EXE c:\ and then press Enter. 4. Edit the DOS config.sys file to add the following statement. device=c:\IBMASPCI.SYS NOTE: A /Q parameter may be added to the end of this device= statement to supress the display of messages while the driver is scanning for SCSI adapters and devices. To include support for IBM CD-ROM drives, also add the following statement after the device=c:\IBMASPCI.SYS statement. device=c:\IBMPCICD.SYS 5. To include support for the CD-ROM file system, edit the DOS autoexec.bat file to add the following statement. MSCDEX /D:MSCD001 /M:10 NOTE: It is recommended that the version of MSCDEX.EXE shipped on this diskette be used with this adapter. 6. Shutdown and then restart the system to activate the driver(s). _______________________________________________________________________ Installing Device Drivers for Novell NetWare Versions 3.1X or 4.X ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Use the instructions in this section if you have Novell NetWare Version 3.1X or 4.X installed. The NetWare driver (IBMPSCSI.DSK) supports disks, CD-ROM drives, and the NetWare SBackup utility for tape backup support directly; therefore, TAPEDAI.DSK and CDNASPI.DSK should NOT be loaded. The driver does support an ASPI interface via the IBMASPI.NLM or IBMENTRY.NLM which has been tested with the following vendor tape backup software. The phone number for further information on each vendor product is provided below. Palindrome** - Network Archivist** (708-505-3300) Cheyenne** - ARCserv** (516-484-5110) NOTE: Tape drives which do not support 4K block sizes will result in a warning message that they must use ASPI tape backup software. 1. Turn on the display and system unit. 2. Prepare the NetWare startup drive according to the instructions in the NetWare manual. 3. Insert the IBM SCSI-2 Fast PCI Bus Adapter Device Drivers Diskette which contains the IBMPSCSI.DSK driver and other files required for Netware support into the diskette drive. 4. Type the following: copy a:\IBMPSCSI.DSK d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. The IBMPSCSI.DSK driver is the base device driver for the IBM SCSI-2 FAST PCI Bus Adapter which supports hard disks, IBM CD-ROM drives, IBM tape drives, and IBM Rewritable Optical Disk drives. Additional Netware Loadable Modules (NLMs) described below are also provided to support Netware ASPI compliant device drivers required by SCSI device drivers and Netware compatible server backup software packages. 5. Type the following: copy a:\IBMASPI.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. The IBMASPI.NLM exports the "ASPI_Entry" entry point and sends IOCTL commands to the IBMPSCSI.DSK module. These two modules are usually all that is required for both disk and ASPI support. 6. Type the following: copy a:\SCSISCAN.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. Use of this module is optional and is provided to aid in verifying that the customer has successfully installed the IBMPSCSI.DSK, IBMASPI.NLM, IBM PCI SCSI adapter and devices. Successful execution of this NLM will result in a screen display showing all attached SCSI devices and their ID's. It is recommended that this NLM be run prior to installing tape backup software. 7. Type the following: copy a:\IBMENTRY.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. Use of the IBMENTRY.NLM file is optional and is provided for systems which already have another vendor's SCSI adapter configured to use the exported "ASPI_Entry" entry point. The export name of "IBM_Entry" is provided to ASPI device drivers as an alternate entry point in this situation. 8a. If you are using Netware version 3.12, the following system patches also must be copied. Type the following: copy a:\nw312\DAICCFIX.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. Type the following: copy a:\nw312\REALMFIX.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. Type the following: copy a:\nw312\PM312.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. 8b. If you are using Netware version 4.xx, the following system patches also must be copied. Type the following: copy a:\nw4xx\DAICCFIX.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. Type the following: copy a:\nw4xx\REALMFIX.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. Type the following: copy a:\nw4xx\PM401.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. 9. If you are using Cheyenne ARCserve server backup software for DOS Version 4.0 or for Windows Version 5.0 or earlier, you must also install the following new version of ASPI50.NLM. Type the following: copy a:\ASPI50.NLM d: (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. 10. To start the NetWare operating system, type the following at the command prompt: SERVER and press Enter. 11. At this time, make sure all activity on the server has stopped. Then load the DAICCFIX.NLM and REALMFIX.NLM NetWare patch files in that order if they were copied in step 8a or 8b above and you are using Netware version 3.12 or 4.xx. NOTE: The PM312.NLM or PM401.NLM patch files will be loaded automatically. 12. At the NetWare server console prompt, type the following: LOAD d:IBMPSCSI (where d: is the NetWare startup drive) and press Enter. This loads the basic device driver required for Netware support. The appropriate NLMs that you chose to copy above should also be loaded at this time depending on your version of Netware and other installed equipment/software. In summary a customer should first load IBMPSCSI.DSK then IBMASPI.NLM. Finally it is recommended that a customer load SCSISCAN.NLM which will do an SCSI scan of the bus using the ASPI interface to verify that the SCSI adapter, SCSI devices, NLM and DSK are loaded and operating properly. Any problems up to this point should be directed to IBM customer support. NOTE: Before creating or deleting NetWare disk partitions with the NetWare INSTALL.NLM utility while running NetWare 3.12 or 4.xx, the IBMASPI.NLM and/or IBMENTRY.NLM must be unloaded. ______________________________________________________ Installing SCSI-2 Device Drivers for Windows NT ------------------------------------------------------ The IBMPSCSI.SYS device driver supports the Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server operating systems.
