Chapter 3 Configure Mass Storage RAID Configuration To configure the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage for RAID operation, refer to one of the following: l If you connected the secondary hot-swap mass storage to SCSI A or SCSI B on the I/O baseboard, refer to the Integrated HP NetRAID Controller Configuration Guide. l If you connected the secondary hot-swap mass storage to an HP NetRAID Series adapter, refer to the HP NetRAID Series Installation and Configuration Guide. HP NetRAID supports Ultra2 SCSI. To ensure that Ultra2 SCSI support is enabled for the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage, run HP NetRAID Express Tools. For instructions, refer to one of the guides listed above. Non-RAID Configuration Drives in the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage can be controlled in non-RAID mode by the SCSI controllers on the I/O baseboard or by a separate SCSI host bus adapter board installed in a PCI slot. l If you connected the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage to a SCSI host bus adapter, refer to its documentation for configuration information. l If you connected the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage to the SCSI A or SCSI B connector on the I/O baseboard, do the following to configure non-RAID operation: ◊ Back up all data on the HP NetServer. ◊ Verify non-RAID operation and the boot order by running the Setup utility, as described in "Run Setup Utility" later in this chapter. ◊ Verify the display, operation, and boot order of the SCSI channels, as described in "Run Symbios Configuration Utility" later in this chapter. ◊ Verify the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage installation and the disk drive module installation, as described in "Verify Disk Drive Modules" later in this chapter. Back Up Data Before you change the configuration of your mass storage, back up all data on the HP NetServer and any external enclosures connected to it. 30
