Installing the LSI22915A

Note:
If the LSI22915A is connected to another host adapter or
SCSI device that uses the same sensing method for
automatic termination, you must override the termination
for that channel by installing a jumper or by using
software control.
2.2.7
Setting SCSI IDs
Set each SCSI device and the host adapter to a separate SCSI ID,
0 through 15. SCSI ID 7 is the preset host adapter setting, giving it the
highest priority on the bus. If you plan to boot your computer from a hard
disk drive on the SCSI bus, that drive should have SCSI ID 0, or the
lowest SCSI ID on the bus.
Normally, you should not change the host adapter SCSI ID setting from its
default. If you wish to do so, refer to the PCI Storage Device Management
System SDMS 4.0 User’s Guide, which explains how to change the host
adapter ID using the LSI Logic SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility.
SCSI IDs on hard disk drives and other SCSI devices are usually set with
jumpers or with a switch on the device. Refer to the device
documentation to determine the ID of each device and how to change it.
No two devices on the SCSI bus can have the same SCSI ID.
Step 1.
Determine the SCSI ID of each device on the SCSI bus, noting
any duplications.
Step 2.
Make any necessary changes to the SCSI IDs and record the
IDs in
for future reference.
