5 Using DAC InterRAID Utilities
This chapter pertains only to systems containing either the DAC960P or DAC960PD
controller. If your system contains the MegaRAID controller, refer to Chapter 6.
NOTE Chapter 1 describes how to determine which RAID controller shipped with your system.
This chapter describes how to upgrade the DAC960 driver and use the RAID Basic
Input/Output System (BIOS) and all of the DAC960 Configuration Utility (DACCF) options.
The “Common DACCF Procedures” section contains procedures such as enabling automatic
rebuild, changing the write policy, configuring additional disk arrays, and recovering
unusable (DED) disk drives.
Intergraph includes DACCF on a diskette delivered with the InterRAID cabinets. Other
available utilities include the Disk Array Controller Administrator (DACADM) and the Disk
Array Controller Monitor (DACMON).
NOTE If you need to load the new driver, follow the applicable instructions in the following section
for Windows NT 3.51 or Windows NT 4.00. The DAC960 driver resides on the same diskette
containing DACCF.
Updating the DAC960 Driver
The DAC960 driver provides an interface for administering the InterRAID disk array
products. After configuring the Windows NT operating system, you must install the updated
Intergraph DAC960 driver.
To install the updated DAC960 driver for use with Windows NT 3.51:
1. Boot the system and log in as administrator.
2. At Program Manager, open Windows NT Setup.
3. From the Options menu, select Add/Remove SCSI Adapters.
4. Select the DAC960 driver; then, select Remove.
5. Select OK at the Warning dialog; then, select OK again.
6. At the Warning dialog, select Add; then, select OK. Windows NT Setup displays a list
of adapters.
7. Scroll to OTHER (Requires disk from a hardware manufacturer).
