This is not a supported configuration.
Command Line Options
The SDMSNET3.DSK and SDMSNET4.DSK drivers have many tuning param-
eters. Following is a list of tuning parameters available, including the default option
and a list of valid options. Following each parameter is a description of when to use
a parameter, and any impact its use/disuse might incur.
If an option is specified but the assignment is not valid, then the default value is
used. The SDMSNET3.DSK and SDMSNET4.DSK drivers are referred to in the
remainder of this section as SDMSNETx.DSK, where x refers to the appropriate
NetWare operating system version.
The options described below are used by placing the specified characters on the load
command line for the SDMS driver. For example, if the Verbose Mode command
line option is desired in NetWare 3.1X, the load command line should look like this:
load SDMSNET3 -v
IMPORTANT: No spaces are allowed in specifying these command line op-
tions. Spaces are required between different command line options.
Using the Verbose Mode Option
Command line option: -v
Function:
Display the current settings of all driver options.
This option shows all the command line option settings for this load of the driver.
Using the Help Mode Option
Command line option: -? or -h
Function:
Display the options available in the driver.
Possible Impact:
The driver will not load with -? or -h specified.
This option is specified on the command line for a brief description of each of the
options available in the driver, as well as valid values for each option. If the -? or -h
option is specified along with other options, the help screen is invoked, the other
options are ignored, and the driver is not loaded.
Using the Tagged Queuing Option
Command line option: qtags=
enable
Valid options:
enable, disable
Function:
