Using SCSI Devices
The subsections that follow provide procedures and tips on the following topics:
l Formatting media
l
Using removable media
l Verifying status
l Using drives that are tested and approved for NetWare
l
Using the NetWare tape backup utility
l Setting up a CD-ROM drive with NetWare 4.2
Formatting Media
NetWare's nwconfig.nlm program lets you optionally format a hard-disk drive for use with NetWare. If you are using SCSI drives, the program
allows you to low-level format several SCSI drives simultaneously. The NetWare format procedure is not the same as using fdisk or format under
DOS.
NOTICE: You should not use NetWare to format a hard-disk drive that contains partitions for other operating systems because that
information may be destroyed.
Using Removable Media
The adpu160.ham driver module fully supports removable-media disk drives, including magneto-optical drives. Removable media is treated as a
standard SCSI hard-disk drive, with some exceptions:
l The driver only recognizes and registers media with 512 bytes per sector.
l
NetWare allows you to mount or dismount the media and lock or unlock the media.
These removable media options are supported by NetWare's monitor.nlm program.
To set up the removable media, perform the following steps:
NOTE: The integrated SCSI adapter is always assigned to slot 1. If an adapter card is installed in slot 1, you
must specify it as being in slot 2. An adapter card installed in slot 2 or a higher numbered slot is assigned its
true physical slot number.
