SCSI Termination
SCSI Addressing
The NetServer SCSI cable is terminated. Verify added devices
are not actively terminated.
Each SCSI device must have a different SCSI address or ID.
This address (0 through 6) dictates where each SCSI device is
in the boot priority order and is set by means of jumpers located
on the outside of the device.
The figure and table to the right are an example of a SCSI hard
disk drive that may be preinstalled in your HP NetServer Model
2100. Use this as a general reference for jumper locations and
settings. Refer to the documentation that came with your SCSI
device for the correct jumper locations and settings. Refer to the
Technical Reference Label on the side of the NetServer chassis
for recommended SCSI setting strategy.
