General Installation Notes
Multiple SCSI Buses with Libraries
If your library and its devices are connected to different SCSI buses, the device driver may become
confused as to which device is contained within the library. If the library and its devices use either the
SCSI-2 serial number or the new SCSI-3 identifier protocol, all devices will be correctly identified.
However, if the library supports neither the SCSI-2 serial number nor the SCSI-3 identifier protocol, you
must connect the library and its devices to the same SCSI bus.
You can also configure the drivers manually. Edit the
dpconfig.ini
file as follows:
[loader logical name]
device-1 = device logical name

NetWare Installation Notes
Running Data Protector Express for NetWare for the First Time
When you run Data Protector Express the first time after installing Data Protector Express on a NetWare
Server, NetWare asks you to enter the NetWare Directory Services (NDS) login user name and password
for the administrator. You must enter this password before you can log in to Data Protector Express.
The default NDS information provided by Data Protector Express may not be correct for your NDS
installation. If the NDS login displays something like:
cn=admin.ou=organizationalunit.o=organization
Try changing the path to:
cn=admin.o=organization
After you successfully log on to NDS, the normal Data Protector Express display login screen appears.
NOTE:
You are only asked to enter the NDS login password once. After you enter the password, the
normal Data Protector Express login screen always appears.
Users with Adaptec Controllers Must Install the Latest Drivers
Some NetWare users with Adaptec controllers may be using outdated drivers, which will affect Data
Protector Express operation. Therefore, if you have an Adaptec controller, please update your drivers
before installing Data Protector Express.
