Installing and Configuring

The IDE Server model uses the IDE-1 for the boot drive and the IDE-2 connector for the IDE CD-ROM. The Setup Utility (BIOS) can be used to change the boot order of the flexible disk drive and the IDE devices. Refer to “BIOS Setup Utility” later in this chapter for more information.

IDE Mass Storage Additions

Table 3-1 lists the number and types of mass storage devices that may be added to the IDE model of the HP Server.

SCSI Mass Storage Devices

This section provides the configuration of the SCSI mass storage devices, if you have selected a SCSI version of the HP Server tc2110. The base SCSI model configuration has at least one SCSI hard drive (shelf 5) located in the drive cage and connected to the factory installed SCSI controller.

SCSI Controller Configuration

The single channel SCSI controller board provided with the SCSI model uses the SCSI Select Utility to control the SCSI controller board settings. If you order the SCSI model, you typically do not need to configure the SCSI controller, because the utility will automatically recognize all SCSI devices connected to it.

Run the SCSI Select Utility to verify or modify the SCSI controller settings, low-level format SCSI disks, or verify SCSI media. Refer to “SCSI Configuration Utility” later in this chapter for further information.

CAUTION You must not connect high voltage differential (HVD) SCSI devices on the SCSI bus or you will damage the other LVD SCSI devices.

The single channel Ultra-160 PCI SCSI controller board provided with the SCSI model includes two SCSI connectors and is normally installed in PCI slot P1. The SCSI cable provided has 5 connectors, (4 for SCSI devices and 1 for the SCSI controller board) and one terminator on the end of the cable.

￿￿1 internal 68-pin connector – This internal connector is used to control the internal SCSI drives; up to a total of four SCSI devices.

￿￿1 external 68-pin connector – This external SCSI connector is only used for external SCSI devices and requires no additional internal cabling or switch settings. This connector supports up to 15 devices connected to it externally.

NOTE

Only one 68-pin connector on the SCSI controller board can be used as the active SCSI

 

connector. Therefore, you cannot connect external SCSI devices to the external connector

 

when there are active internal SCSI devices connected to the internal SCSI connector.
