The Dell SCSI drivers for IntranetWare support the optional Adaptec AHA-2940U2W
and all Adaptec 78
xx
series SCSI controllers, are fully tested and approved for
IntranetWare, and are available on the
Dell OpenManage Server Assistant
CD. You
will need to create IntranetWare 4.11 diskettes containing these drivers if you have
not already done so. Refer to the
Dell OpenManage Server Assistant
CD to create
these diskettes.
The IntranetWare driver diskettes you create contain a number of files used by
IntranetWare. During the IntranetWare installation process, you will be asked to
select or use the following files:
²
aic78u2.ham
´ IntranetWare driver for the AIC-7890 and AHA-2940U2W host
adapters
²
aha2940.ham
´ IntranetWare driver for the AIC-7860 host adapter
²
nwaspi.cdm
´ Adaptec±s device driver for a CD-ROM drive
²
cdrom.nlm
´ File required by the IntranetWare bus interface
If you have an optional RAID controller, you will also be using the
pedge4x.ham
file,
the IntranetWare driver for the RAID controller. Depending on the RAID controller you
have, the driver may be on the
Dell OpenManage Server Assistant
CD or on a sepa-
rate diskette included with the shipment.
In addition, the IntranetWare driver diskettes contain the driver-definition information
files for both the 78
xx
Ultra2 SCSI series host adapters and the AHA-2940U2W host
adapter. These files provide setup information to IntranetWare during installation so
that IntranetWare can prompt you with parameters to be configured for these device
drivers.
NOTE: Your system must have a bootable version of MS-DOS or Digital Research±s
DR-DOS installed before you can complete the IntranetWare installation.
After creating the driver diskettes, you will need to prepare the hard-disk drive and
then install IntranetWare 4.11. Once IntranetWare is installed, you can then install
Dell-supplied Novell patches and Support Pack 5, as well as SMP support. The follow-
ing subsections describe these procedures in detail.
NOTE: If the server has a RAID controller installed, you must set up the RAID control-
ler and drives in a valid configuration
before
you perform the procedures in the
following subsections. Refer to the RAID controller documentation to configure the
controller and drives, and then return to this section.
