3. Install the Mylex DAC960PL adapter in Slot 1 of PCI Bus 2 (third PCI
slot from bottom, marked as P4) as instructed in the Mylex DAC960PL
Disk Array Controller User’s Manual and the NCR S46 Server User
Guide. Note that the bottom 4 slots are EISA slots, and the top 6 slots
PCI slots. Even though the Mylex adapter will fit into an EISA slot, the
installer should make sure that it is not installed there; if it is, the adapter
will be damaged.
4. Refer to Chapter 6 “Servicing the SCSI Hot-Docking Backplane” in the
NCR S46 Server Service Guide for cabling your Mylex Disk Array
Adapter in an S46 server. Cabling should be done by a qualified service
technician.
5. Connect the desired disk drives to the Mylex DAC960PL Adapter.
Internal drives are automatically terminated correctly by the Hot-docking
backplane in the S46 server. See the NCR S46 Server User Guide for
more details on the SCSI.
6. Ensure that the CD-ROM and tape drives are connected to the narrow
SCSI cable and to the on-board SCSI Channel A (marked as “SCSI A”).
Configure RAID Disks
To configure RAID Disks, follow these steps:
1. If there are disk drives connected to both the on-board Adaptec controllers
and the Mylex controllers, decide on which disk you want to install the
operating system. Only install the operating system on disk drives
connected to Adaptec controller A (SCSI A) or to the Mylex controller on
PCI BUS 2, Slot 1 (P4).
2. If you want to install the operating system to an array connected to the
Mylex DAC960PL Adapter, ensure the following:
–
The Mylex BIOS is “enabled” for the adapter in slot P4.
–
The BIOS is “disabled” for all other plug-in SCSI or RAID adapters
in the EISA slots or PCI slots P1 and P2, if any.
The BIOS can remain “enabled” for the on-board Adaptec controllers,
since they are scanned by the BIOS after the Mylex DAC960PL
Adapter in slot P2-1.
