Hardware Specifications and Features 3.2 3.3 3.3.1 Operating System Support The following operating systems are fully validated and supported: • Microsoft* Windows* 2000 Advanced Server, Service Pack 3 • Novell* NetWare* 6.0 • SCO* Openserver* 5.0.6a • Red Hat* Linux* 7.2 (2.4 kernel) • SCO UnixWare* 8.0 • SuSe Linux 7.3 Professional The following operating systems are supported with limited compatibility validation: • Windows 2000 server • Windows NT 4.0 Server and Enterprise Server, Service Pack 6a or higher • Novell NetWare 5.1 (support pack 2a or higher) • Linux (2.4 kernel) - Red Hat Linux 7.1 - Debian* Linux 2.2r6 - Caldera Linux 3.1 - Mandrake* Linux 8.1 - TurboLinux* 7.0 Server • SCO UnixWare 7.1.1 • FreeBSD* 4.4 and 4.5 • Linux (2.2 kernal) - Red Hat Linux 7.0 Supported SCSI Technology The RAID controller supports up to 15 physical SCSI devices per SCSI channel. It supports up to 15 hard disk drives (or 14 hard disk drives if one of the SCSI IDs is occupied by a SAF-TE processor) per channel, which means that the dual channel SRCU42L controller can support 30 disk drives maximum. Supported Hard Drive Technology The controller supports both Single-ended (SE) and Low Voltage Differential (LVD) devices but it is recommended that you use only one type of drive technology (SE or LVD) on any one channel at a time. See Table 3-3 for the Supported SCSI Device Standards. The controller is designed to optimally utilize Ultra320 SCSI devices; yet it is backward compatible with older SCSI hard disk drive specifications. Hardware Installation and User's Guide 23

3.3
Supported SCSI Technology
The RAID controller supports up to 15 physical SCSI devices per SCSI channel. It
supports up to 15 hard disk drives (or 14 hard disk drives if one of the SCSI IDs is
occupied by a SAF-TE processor) per channel, which means that the dual channel
SRCU42L controller can support 30 disk drives maximum.
3.3.1
Supported Hard Drive Technology
The controller supports both
Single-ended (SE)
and
Low Voltage Differential (LVD)
devices but it is recommended that you use only one type of drive technology (SE or
LVD) on any one channel at a time. See
Table 3-3
for the Supported SCSI Device
Standards. The controller is designed to optimally utilize Ultra320 SCSI devices; yet it is
backward compatible with older SCSI hard disk drive specifications.
