Click the OK button to reboot the system.

If you are adding the SCSI driver (

scsiU320-00

) for 11i v 1.0, you can find the SCSI driver on the

December 2004 (or later) OE distribution media. If you are adding the SCSI driver (

scsiU320-00

) for 11i

v 2.0, you must use the September 2004 (or later) OE distribution media. Just repeat  Step 7 to load it.

Step 8: Configure the card using SAM

Log in as

root

 and verify that the card and its hardware path are displayed by entering:

ioscan

.

Run the System Administration Manager by entering:

sam

.

Double-click Networking and Communications.

Double-click Network Interface Cards.

Highlight the AB290A combination SCSI/Gigabit Ethernet card and choose

Configure

from the “Actions”

menu.

Fill in the form according to the instructions using the “Network card Configuration Worksheet” in this
document.

Click the OK button to activate the card and then select

exit

 from the “File” menu until you exit SAM.

Step 9: Verify the SCSI installation

After installing the scsiU320-00 software bundle containing the mpt driver, installing the AB290A adapter,
and attaching the peripheral devices, verify that all of the components are working by following these steps:

To verify that the mpt driver appears for each installed card,  enter:

ioscan -fnkd mpt

The

ioscan

 output will be similar to the following example:

# ioscan -fnkd mpt
