Additional Information

In addition to installing the adapter, you may want to perform the

following tasks:

• Review the recommendations for performance.

• Determine what you need to do (if anything) to conﬁgure auto

termination for the adapter. Change the jumper position, if needed.

• Attach any external SCSI device you want to connect to the adapter.

• If necessary, set any of the following SCSI parameters:

— SCSI ID

— Maximum data transfer rate

— Auto termination

— Bus width

Before setting the SCSI ID, maximum data transfer rate, and bus

width parameters through Boot Control Handler (BCH) menus,

ensure that the HP-UX system supports setting of these parameters

in the BCH menus.

• If you will be using a disk array in a multi-host environment, ensure

to conﬁgure a LUN 0.
