Adapters

 

The sequence of entries in

the ICAPARM.PRM

file determines the logical card numbering

(the

first parameter

line

is for logical

card 0).

The logical card numbering for PCI adapters must match the physical card numbering. Th numbering for ISA adapters can be changed, but the entries for all PCI adapters mu before any entries for ISA adapters.

The following example shows an ICAPARM.PRM file for two ISA and two PCI adapters in an system. (For an explanation of the fields, see the field descriptions under “Example Adapter” on page A-2.)

In this example, the two PCI adapters (physical card 0000 and 0001) are assigned to respectively. The ISA adapter at address 06A0 is assigned to logical card 2, and th address 02A0 is assigned to logical card 3.

Changing Your CONFIG.SYS File

If OS/2 and Communications Manager/2 (CM/2) must be modified (using a text editor) CONFIG.SYS as follows, but substitute your

Change:

DEVICE=C:\CMLIB\ICARICIO.SYS

To:

DEVICE=C:\CMLIB\ICARICIO.SYS C:\CMLIB\ICAPARM.PRM

are being used, then one line of the CONFI to specify the location of the ICAPARM.PRM f specific drive paths:

Note: Make this

change after CM/2

is configured. Later, if CM/2 is configured again,

replace

the

CONFIG.SYS file.

However,

if

you must let CM/2 change CONFIG.SYS to ad

devices,

just

edit CONFIG.SYS

again

to

replace the ICAPARM.PRM parameter.

If only OS/2 is being used, the following applies:

Change:

DEVICE=C:\YOUR_ARTIC_DIR\ICARICIO.SYS

To:

DEVICE=C:\YOUR_ARTIC_DIR\ICARICIO.SYS C:\YOUR_ARTIC_DIR\ICAPARM.PRM
