Before you eject the current media, dismount it. When the mount status is Dis-
mounted, eject the media. However, NetWare does not allow you to dismount media
that are locked.
To insert your new media, wait for the drive to spin up, and then select the Remov-
able Drive Mount Status option.

If your removable-media device supports the lock/unlock feature, you can lock the
media. The media must be in the Not Locked state before you can eject it.

To be fully certified as NetWare "Yes, Tested and Approved," a drive and host adapter
must both pass a qualification process that takes place before you see the product.
The goals of NetWare testing are to simplify installation and provide the highest
quality disk subsystem.
Adaptec 78xx series host adapters and their drivers are fully tested and approved for
NetWare. This means that you can purchase a NetWare drive (certified as "Yes, Tested
and Approved") from a vendor, connect it to your computer system or host adapter,
partition it, and create a volume without any compatibility concerns.
NOTE: Dell recommends using only Dell-tested drives.
Adaptec's adpu160.ham driver module is flexible enough to allow you to connect
SCSI drives that are tested and approved for NetWare as well as standard SCSI drives
to a single host adapter. The driver registers each hard-disk drive accordingly.
Drive registration is a user-transparent process; no user interaction is required. You
can tell that the drive has been detected as NetWare-tested and NetWare-approved if
the message
NetWare Yes Tested and Approved is included in the drive
description string that appears when you run monitor.nlm (disk options).

Included with NetWare is a server-based tape backup utility called sbcon.nlm. This
allows backup of server hard-disk drives to a server tape drive. The sbcon.nlm utility
supports Adaptec host adapters. To load the backup utility, perform the following
steps:
1. Load the SCSI adapter driver by entering:
load [pathname]\aha160.ham [options] slot=x
The ASPI layer (nwaspi.cdm) is automatically loaded.
2. Refer to the Novell NetWare documentation for additional instructions on loading
the server backup software. Refer to the NetWare Server Backup User's Guide to
load the tsa and sbcon modules.
