Establishing a SCSI Connection, Dual Controller

If Client’s host operating system is Windows, you can connect to, monitor and
manage your RA3000 over the SCSI bus.

Before you can connect to your storage subsystem over the SCSI bus, at least
one virtual disk must be configured for each host port. To create the virtual
disks you must use a serial connection to the subsystem. The procedure to
create the virtual disks is summarized as follows:

Establish a serial connection to your RAID using the Establishing a
Serial Connection, Dual Controller procedure provided in this User’s
Guide.

Create a virtual disk for each host port. See “ Creating a Virtual Disk.”

Reboot your system.

Start the disk administrator, create the partitions and assign drive letters
for the two virtual disks.

For a dual-controller configuration, to connect over the SCSI bus proceed as
follows:

1.

Open the HSZ22 Storage window (Start|Programs|Command
Console|HSZ22 Storage window).

2.

When the Connection Dialog box appears, select the SCSI option.
