SCSI Identifiers
During the installation and maintenance of the HPAA system, there
are several different pieces of configuration data that must be
collected, documented, and referenced.
One of the more important
pieces is the SCSI identifier for the logical drives that the AA 4000
software will “redirect” to the ownership of the CE.
In the AA 4000
Installation Guide
bundled with the system (also an
Adobe Acrobat file on the AA 4000 CD), there are several blank
charts for recording SCSI device information.
This chart should be
filled out, or a similar one made.
The chart helps the administrator
keep track of the SCSI configurations for each SCSI device.
An
example of the chart is below.
If the SCSI information for the SCSI devices in the array is not
known, check the Windows NT Registry. The Registry contains an
entry for each SCSI device.
Before looking for the SCSI
information, be sure to know which adapter is being used and the
driver name associated with that adapter.
To check the Registry:
1.
Open the Windows NT Registry.
2.
Choose
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\Scsi
3.
Choose the SCSI port matching the adapter.
(Make sure the
Driver
parameters on the right side of the
Registry window match the adapter being checked.)
4.
Choose
\Scsi BUS x\Target ID x\Logical Unit Number x
5.
On the right side of the Registry window, make sure that the
Identifier
and
Type
parameters describe the SCSI devices.
6.
Map the following Registry information to the appropriate field
on the SCSI Configuration Chart.
