O or Non-I
2
O Operation
If you plan to install NetWare 4.2 or 5, decide whether you want to operate in I
2
O
mode or in conventional non-I
2
O mode. This determines whether you should load
the HP NetRAID OSM (for I
2
O) or the non-I
2
O HP NetRAID drivers in Step K.
• Conventional non-I
2
O HP NetRAID drivers are provided for all network
operating systems supported by the integrated HP NetRAID controller.
• Novell NetWare versions 4.2 and 5 support I
2
O operation. They supply the
OS Services Module (OSM) required for I
2
O operation. The HP NetRAID
firmware supports I
2
O operation when the OSM is present and the PCI
class code is set to "I2O" mode for all I
2
O-capable HP NetRAID adapters
in the system, including the integrated HP NetRAID controller, if present.
◊ The boot controller cannot be the integrated HP NetRAID controller or
any other HP NetRAID Series adapter operating in I
2
O mode.
◊ To support I
2
O operation of HP NetRAID, install NetWare manually,
not automatically, in Step K and follow the installation instructions in
your NetWare documentation.
◊ For OSM installation instructions, refer to your NetWare
documentation.
