SCSI Support

The Adaptec adpu320 driver does not support any Adaptec Ultra/320 PCI add-on 
cards. Other add-on SCSI cards are supported if they are listed on the Sun 
hardware compatibility list (HCL). You can find the HCL at:

http://soldc.sun.com/support/drivers/hcl/

You may encounter issues when booting from internal SCSI drives when an 
external SCSI device or an external SCSI array has been added. To boot the system 
using internal drives, the SCSI BIOS settings may need to be modified for each 
channel using the following procedure.

Modifying the SCSI BIOS Settings

1. To access the SCSI BIOS settings, press Ctrl+A (at POST, during the SCSI 

initialization phase).

2. Once in the SCSI BIOS, select External Channel A AIC-7902 A slot at 00:04:07:00.

Select the following options:

Configure/View SCSI Controller Settings 

Advanced Configuration

3. In the Advanced Configuration menu, go to SCSI Controller Int 13 Support.

Select one of the Disabled options.

Note – 

If you select the Disabled option, you will disable the rear SCSI port. If you 

select the Selecting Disabled: With Scan option, the rear SCSI port will remain 
available.

4. In the SCSI BIOS settings screen, select Internal Channel B AIC-7902 B at slot 

00:04:07:01. 

Select the following options:

Configure/View SCSI Controller Settings

Advanced Configuration

5. In the Advanced Configuration menu, go to SCSI Controller Int 13 Support.

Select the Enabled option if it is not already selected.

6. Save the settings before exiting the menu.
