Driver Description

The LSI MPT NWPA solution consists of the device driver
LSIMPTNW.HAM and the NetWare NWPA installation file
LSIMPTNW.DDI.

LSIMPTNW is an NWPA Host Adapter Module (HAM). In order to
support SCSI devices, you must load the HAM module in conjunction
with a SCSI Custom Device Module (CDM). Novell has developed
generic CDMs to support SCSI Hard Drives, SCSI CD-ROM devices,
SCSI tape devices, and SCSI changer devices. In addition, third party
vendors are developing CDMs to support their specific devices.
