In addition to loading the
ASPI8XX.SYS
driver, you may optionally load
the
SYMCD.SYS
and/or
SYMDISK.SYS
drivers for DOS CD-ROM and DOS
removable media support. Netware does not require
SYMCD.SYS
and
SYMDISK.SYS
for CD-ROM or MO support.
12.5.4 Using the SDMS 4.XX BIOS
If the system contains an older SDMS 4.XX BIOS, you must load
ASPI8XX.SYS
(version 4.10 or greater) in the
CONFIG.SYS
file. You must
also disable SCAM in the SDMS 4.XX BIOS. If SCAM is enabled, then
the SDMS NWPA HAM drivers will fail to load.
12.5.5 Using the ASPI8XX.SYS Driver
SCAM support by default is off in ASPI Manager version 4.10 and later.
12.5.6 Supporting DOS Drivers
The SDMS
ASPI8XX.SYS
(4.10 or greater) DOS driver supports the older
SDMS 4.XX BIOS.
SYMCD.SYS
and
SYMDISK.SYS
support CD-ROM and
MO devices under DOS. NetWare does not require
SYMCD.SYS
nor
SYMDISK.SYS
support for CD-ROM and MO devices; however,
ASPI8XX.SYS
and
SYMCD.SYS
are required for SCSI CD-ROM installation.
describes the DOS drivers currently supported by the SDMS
NWPA drivers,
LSI8XXNW.HAM
,
LSIHINW.HAM
, and
LSI_U3NW.HAM
