Configuring a Windows 200x Server or
Windows 200x Advanced Server
This appendix provides platform-specific host installation and configuration
information to use when you connect a SANnet II 200 SCSI array to a host running the
Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Windows 2003 Server, or
Windows 2003 Advanced Server OS. For convenience, these platforms are referred to
collectively in this document as “Windows 200x server.”
The SANnet II 200 SCSI array supports Microsoft Windows 2000 Server and
Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Service Pack 3 or greater, in dual path
configurations using multipath failover drivers for Microsoft Windows 2000.
If you are going to use dual path instead of single path, refer to the SANpath User’s
Guide for detailed instructions about setting up the device driver on the server and for
additional information about configuring your Windows 2000 Server or Advanced
Server.
The information in this appendix supplements the cabling steps presented in Chapter 4,
and covers the following steps:
■
“Setting Up the Serial Port Connection” on page F-1
■
“Accessing the Firmware Application From a Windows 200x Server” on page F-3
■
“Enabling a Windows 200x Server to Recognize New Devices and LUNs” on
page F-4
F.1 Setting Up the Serial Port Connection
The RAID controller can be configured by means of a host system running a VT100
terminal emulation program or by a Windows terminal emulation program such as
HyperTerminal.
Note –
You can also monitor and configure a RAID array over an IP network using the
firmware application or the SANscape program after you assign an IP address to the
array. For details, see “Setting Up Out-of-Band Management Over Ethernet” on
page 4-28 or refer to the
SANscape User’s Guide.
