NOTE: To obtain the slot number, perform the following steps:

a.Press <Alt><Esc> until you get a console prompt.

b.Type load ql2200 or load ql2100, and press <Enter> to display the available slots. Make a note of the displayed slot numbers.

c.In NetWare 4.2, press <Esc> until the console prompt appears. In NetWare 5.1, press <0> to return to the console prompt.

19.Leave the Scan all Luns option at the default value of Yes, and press <F10> to save the configuration.

20.Select Save parameters and load driver.

21.If you have a second adapter, select Yes at the prompt Do you want to select an additional Disk driver?, and then repeat steps 10 through 18 for the second adapter.

22.At the prompt Do you want to select an additional Disk driver?, select No.

23.Select Return to previous menu twice.

24.Select Exit to exit the installation program.

The installation procedure makes all necessary additions and changes to the startup.ncf file and sets the values appropriately, so you do not need to adjust any driver settings.

25.Mount the volumes according to the configuration you had prior to step 6.

If the Mount commands are in the autoexec.ncf file, you can reinitialize the autoexec.ncf file to mount the appropriate volumes.

NOTICES: For volumes to be accessed by a NetWare server, you must mount them on the server. You can mount them by issuing the Mount command; however, most administrators place it in the autoexec.ncf file. After NetWare installation, the Mount all command is placed in the autoexec.ncf file by default. The administrator must remove this command and replace it with a series of Mount commands explicitly mounting the volumes on the SAN that should be available to the server. For instructions, see Chap- ter 12, “Installing, Configuring, and Uninstalling Components in a Novell NetWare SAN.”

If you are using Novell Storage Services (NSS) volumes in your SAN, you must edit each system’s autoexec.ncf file. In this file, find the command load nss.nlm and change it to LOAD NSS /AutoDeactivateVolume=all / MailboxSize=16000 /ClosedFileCacheSize=100000 /CacheBalance=60. This command prevents the NSS manager from mounting all NSS volumes attached to the SAN.

The driver upgrade on Novell NetWare is completed.
