1 Installation and Setup The HP Ultra3 Single Channel SCSI Host Bus Adapter enables you to connect up to 15 SCSI devices—such as hard disk drives, scanners, and CD-ROM drives—to HP Servers with 32-bit or 64-bit PCI expansion slots. You can connect newer Ultra3 and Ultra2 SCSI devices to the two 68-pin Low Voltage Differential/Single-Ended (LVD/SE) connectors. You can also connect legacy SCSI devices to the 68-pin and 50-pin internal Single-Ended (SE) connectors.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Although the HP Ultra3 SCSI Host Bus Adapter is a 64-bit PCI host bus adapter, it also works in a 32-bit PCI slot. When installed in a 32-bit PCI slot, the host bus adapter automatically runs in the slower 32-bit mode.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Primary LVD/SE Segment Secondary LVD/SE Segment Figure 1-2. Primary and Secondary Bus Segments NOTE If you attach Wide Ultra or Ultra SCSI devices to the LVD/SE connector(s), the data transfer rate for all attached Ultra3 and Ultra2 SCSI devices will drop to Ultra SCSI performance levels.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup 32-bit PCI Slot 64-bit PCI Slot Figure 1-3. 32-bit and 64-bit Expansion Slots 3. Locate an unused 64-bit PCI expansion slot and remove the expansion slot cover. If the HP Server does not have a 64-bit slot, you can install the host adapter in a 32-bit PCI slot. (The expansion slot must be compliant with PCI Rev. 2.1 or higher and must support bus mastering.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Figure 1-4. Host Bus Adapter Installed in 64-bit Slot HP Servers may have vertical or horizontal expansion slots. Refer to your HP Server manual to locate the PCI slots. NOTE Be careful when inserting the HP Ultra3 SCSI host bus adapter in a PCI slot. Some 32-bit slots will not accommodate it, and the host adapter may break if you force it into the slot. 4.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Setting Up SCSI Devices There are several things you may need to do to your SCSI devices before you connect them to the HP Ultra3 SCSI host bus adapter: · Check the SCSI IDs · Set the termination · Connect the power cables Since setup can vary from device to device, always refer to the device’s documentation for specific instructions. Below are some guidelines for setting SCSI IDs and termination on your devices.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup LVD SCSI Twisted-Pair Cable Figure 1-5. LVD SCSI Twisted-Pair Cable 3. Plug the internal Ultra3 SCSI devices to the other cable connectors, starting with the connector at the terminated end of the cable (Figure 1-6). Terminated LVD SCSI Twisted-Pair Cable Terminator Figure 1-6.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Connecting External SCSI Devices Connect external Ultra3 SCSI devices to the 68-pin external LVD/SE SCSI connector. Each external device will require a high density 68-pin external LVD SCSI cable. Follow these steps to connect the external devices: 1. Connect one end of the external LVD SCSI cable to the external LVD/SE connector on the HP Ultra3 SCSI host bus adapter. Figure 1-7. Connecting External SCSI Devices 2.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Figure 1-8. Terminating the Last External SCSI Device 4. Terminate only the device at the end of the chain. (Use of an external multi-mode SCSI terminator is required.) 5. Connect power cables to all external devices and to the HP Server. HP Ultra3 SCSI Host Adapter Driver Software NOTE To use the HP Ultra3 SCSI host bus adapter, driver software must be installed for your operating system.
Chapter 1 Installation and Setup Troubleshooting If you have any problems while installing the HP Ultra3 SCSI host bus adapter, check the following items first: · Are all SCSI devices powered on? · Are all SCSI cables and power cables properly connected? · Does each device on the SCSI bus have a unique SCSI ID? · Does the total SCSI cable length exceed the maximum allowable length? (The maximum cable length for the Ultra3 SCSI host adapter cannot exceed 12 meters.
2 Configuration with SCSISelect SCSISelect, included with the HP Ultra3 SCSI Host Bus Adapter, enables you to change SCSI settings without opening the computer or handling the host bus adapter. SCSISelect also enables you to low-level format or verify the disk media of your SCSI hard disk drives. The following table lists the available and default settings for each SCSISelect option. NOTE The default settings are appropriate for most systems.
Chapter 2 Configuration with SCSISelect Table 2-1.
Chapter 2 Configuration with SCSISelect Starting SCSISelect Follow these steps to start SCSISelect: 1. Turn on or restart your system. During the startup process, pay careful attention to the messages that appear on your screen. 2. When the following message appears on your screen, press the Ctrl-A keys simultaneously (this message appears for only a few seconds): Press for SCSISelect (TM) Utility! 3.
Chapter 2 Configuration with SCSISelect SCSI Bus Interface Definitions · Host Adapter SCSI ID—(Default: 7) Sets the SCSI ID for the SCSI host bus adapter. The Ultra3 SCSI Host Bus Adapter is set at 7, which gives it the highest priority on the SCSI bus. We recommend that you do not change this setting. · SCSI Parity Checking—(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, verifies the accuracy of data transfer on the SCSI bus.
Chapter 2 · Configuration with SCSISelect Initiate Wide Negotiation—(Default: Yes) When set to Yes, the SCSI host bus adapter attempts 16-bit data transfer (wide negotiation). When set to No, the SCSI host bus adapter uses 8-bit data transfer unless the SCSI device requests wide negotiation. NOTE Set Initiate Wide Negotiation to No if you are using an 8-bit SCSI device that hangs or exhibits other performance problems with 16-bit data transfer rate enabled.
Chapter 2 Configuration with SCSISelect Advanced Configuration Options NOTE Do not change the Advanced Configuration Options unless absolutely necessary. · Reset SCSI Bus at IC Initialization—(Default: Enabled) When set to Enabled, the SCSI host bus adapter generates a SCSI bus reset during its power-on initialization and after a hard reset.
Chapter 2 Configuration with SCSISelect o Set to Disabled: Not scan if the devices on the SCSI bus (for example, CD-ROM drives) are controlled by software drivers and do not need the BIOS, and you do not want the BIOS to scan the SCSI bus. o Set to Disabled: Scan Bus if you do not need the BIOS, but you want it to scan the SCSI devices on the bus. The following four options have no effect when the SCSI host bus adapter BIOS is disabled. (The SCSI host bus adapter BIOS is normally enabled by default.
Chapter 2 Configuration with SCSISelect Using SCSI Disk Utilities To access the SCSI disk utilities, follow these steps: 1. Select the SCSI Disk Utilities option from the menu that appears after starting SCSISelect. SCSISelect scans the SCSI bus (to determine the devices installed) and displays a list of all SCSI IDs and the devices assigned to each ID. 2. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to a specific ID and device, then press Enter. 3.

Chapter 5 Novell NetWare Installation Using NetWare and the Host Adapter This section contains useful information on using NetWare and your host adapter. Using Removable Media The adpt160m.ham driver module fully supports removable-media disk drives, including magneto-optical drives. Removable media is treated as a standard SCSI hard disk, with some exceptions: · The driver only recognizes and registers media with 512 bytes/sector.
Chapter 5 Novell NetWare Installation Before you eject your current media, you should first Dismount it (menu choice 5). When the media status is Dismounted, you can eject the media. However, NetWare does not allow you to dismount it if the media is locked. To insert your new media, wait for the drive to spin-up, and then select the Drive Mount option. Lock Status If your removable-media device supports the Lock/Unlock feature, you can lock the media (menu choice 6).
