Additional Procedures
After completing the steps described in “Hardware Installation” and
“3ware Disk Array Configuration Utility”, the operating system,
disk drivers, and 3DM disk management application must be
installed next. The Escalade User Guide describes these procedures
in detail for a variety of Window and Linux operating system ver-
sions under the following installation scenarios:
•
Installing the ATA RAID Controller and operating system
•
Installing the ATA RAID Controller and operating system using boot
diskettes
•
Installing the ATA RAID Controller on systems that boot from a dif-
ferent device (i.e., operating system has been installed on a drive con-
nected to another controller)
•
Replacing an existing ATA RAID Controller with a new version of
the controller
The Escalade User Guide is included on the 3ware CD-ROM pack-
aged with the ATA RAID Controller. Finish setting up your 3ware
ATA RAID Controller and RAID array by performing one of the
procedures listed above followed by installation of the 3DM disk
management application.
