SCSI Connections
SCSI Restrictions
This workstation offers the following types of SCSI bus, each with its own
configuration constraints:
•
single-ended standard SCSI-2 bus
•
fast, wide, differential SCSI bus
Single-Ended SCSI-2 Bus Configuration Constraints
For the single-ended standard SCSI-2 bus, HP-UX supports only one of each
type of removable disk drive and two of the same type tape devices per sys-
tem. Table 18 shows configuration constraints for each single-ended stan-
dard SCSI-2 device type. If the system has internal hard disk drives or a CD-
ROM drive, you must count them as SCSI-2 devices.
CAUTION:
Do not mix single-ended standard and fast, wide SCSI-2 peripherals.
Fast, Wide Differential SCSI Bus Configuration Constraints
Fast, wide SCSI does not work with the single-ended standard SCSI-2.
Table 19 shows the configuration constraints for each fast, wide, differential
SCSI device type.
