slot numbers separated by commas is displayed. Press <Esc> to clear the command line.

NOTE: To load the driver from your hard-disk drive, the aic78u2.ham driver and nwaspi.cdm module must be copied from your IntranetWare driver diskette to a directory on your hard-disk drive (usually the server's start-up directory [for example, c:\nwserver]).

The syntax to load the aic78u2.ham driver follows:

load [pathname]\aic78u2.ham [options] slot=x

For example, the command line to load the driver from the c:\nwserver directory with the verbose= option on and a slot number of 10002 follows:

ORDG￿F￿?QZVHUYHU?DLF￿￿X￿￿KDP￿YHUERVH \￿VORW ￿￿￿￿￿

NOTE: For each Adaptec 78xx host adapter installed, a separate load command line must be included in the startup.ncf file. The slot number (slot=) identifies the specific adapter.

To modify the startup.ncf file, follow these steps:

1.At the IntranetWare prompt, type LQVWDOO and press <Enter>.

2.Choose the menu selection that allows you to edit the startup.ncf file.

3.Make the necessary changes. When you are finished, press <F10>.

To be fully certified as IntranetWare “Yes, Tested and Approved,” a drive and host adapter must both pass a qualification process that takes place before you see the product. The goals of IntranetWare testing are to simplify installation and provide the highest quality disk subsystem.

Adaptec 78xx series host adapters and their drivers are fully tested and approved for IntranetWare. This means that you can purchase a IntranetWare drive (certified as “Yes, Tested and Approved”) from a vendor, connect it to your system or host adapter, partition it, and create a volume without any compatibility concerns.

NOTE: Dell recommends using only Dell-tested drives.

Adaptec’s aic78u2.ham driver module is flexible enough to allow you to connect SCSI drives that are tested and approved for IntranetWare, as well as standard SCSI drives, to a single host adapter. The driver registers each hard-disk drive accordingly.

Drive registration is a user-transparent process; no user interaction is required. You can tell that the drive has been detected as IntranetWare-tested and IntranetWare- approved if the message 1HW:DUH￿<HV￿7HVWHG￿DQG￿$SSURYHG is included in the drive description string that appears when you run monitor.nlm (disk options).
