Installing Banyan VINES on an HP Netserver

3. In the System Maintenance menu go to unix shell by entering 11.

Upgrading VINES servers that use the HP Disk Array Controller PCI

adapter

Following any upgrade patch to any VINES 6.XX Maintenance Release (e.g. 6.00(10),

6.20, 6.30, 6.40) the System Administrator must perform the following steps to ensure the

correct driver is loaded into the kernel.

1. Reload the DAC driver package diskette

2. Build a new kernel

3. Reboot the server

If these steps are not performed immediately following any upgrade patch to a VINES

6.XX Maintenance Release, a server panic may occur. For instructions on how to load a

third-party driver package on your VINES 6.0 server see your Banyan Server Installation

Guide.

VINES 6.0 (and later) cannot boot from PCI controller if an EISA

controller is also installed

Banyan VINES 6.0 (and later) was designed to always boot from EISA disk controllers

before PCI disk controllers. To work around this limitation you must either boot from the

EISA controller, or the embedded SCSI controller if on the NetServer LC, or remove the

EISA controllers from your system.
