Page 165 highlights

Installing IPSSEND and IPSMON for UnixWare: To install these programs for UnixWare 7.0: 1. Insert the IBM ServeRAID Command Line Programs Diskette into the diskette drive. 2. Copy the program files from the IBM ServeRAID Command Line Programs Diskette by typing the following: doscp -r a:/unixware/ipssend /usr/bin/ipssend 3. Press Enter; then, type: doscp -r a:/unixware/ipsmon /usr/bin/ipsmon 4. Press Enter; then, change the access permissions by typing the following: chmod 7 /usr/bin/ipssend 5. Press Enter; then, type: chmod 7 /usr/bin/ipsmon 6. Press Enter; then, refer to "Starting the ServeRAID Administration and Monitoring Program" on page 98 for information to start and use the IPSSEND and IPSMON programs. Installing IPSSEND for DOS: To install IPSSEND for DOS: 1. Create a startable diskette. To do this, insert a blank diskette in diskette drive A; then, type: format a: /s 2. Press Enter. 3. Copy the ASPI device driver from the DOS directory on the IBM ServeRAID Device Driver Diskette to the startable diskette. 4. Copy the IPSSEND.EXE file from the DOS directory on the IBM ServeRAID Command Line Programs Diskette to the startable diskette. 5. Leaving the startable diskette in the diskette drive, restart the system; then, refer to "Starting the ServeRAID Administration and Monitoring Program" on page 98 for information to start and use the IPSSEND and IPSMON programs. Rebuilding a defunct drive When a hard disk drive goes defunct (DDD), a Rebuild operation is required to reconstruct the data for the device in its respective disk array. The ServeRAID adapters and controllers can reconstruct RAID level-1 and RAID level-5 logical drives, but they cannot reconstruct data stored in RAID level-0 logical drives. To prevent data integrity problems, the ServeRAID adapters and controllers set the RAID level-0 logical drives Netfinity 5500 M20 - Type 8662 157
