Tech Tip
TECH TIP NO.: TTSCSI.036
PRODUCT: Series 15 Fast Fisk EISA Caching SCSI Host Adapter
Series 44 Fast Disk EISA Caching SCSI Host Adapter
Series 48 Fast Disk NC SCSI Host Adapter
DATE: 4/16/93
ORIGINATOR: Peter B. Jarrett
RELEASED BY: Documentation Control
SUBJECT: The Use of WORM\OPTICAL Devices and New Unformatted
WORM\OPTICAL Cartridges
Some WORM devices are not recognized at the end the Controller POST due to one
or more of the following conditions:
1. No Cartridge in the drivebay (required for Caching Controllers).
2. Unformatted Cartridge.
3. Device not recognized by "ASPIKERN.SYS" 'version 1.0' driver.
For items 2 & 3, set the cfg options "AUTOSELECTION TIMEOUT FOR NON_EXISTENT
DEVICES" to "DISABLED". By doing this, UT13.EXE and any other SCSI accessible
program will have access to the device, in order to format it if necessary.
After formatting has been completed, the system should be POWER-CYCLED in order
for the drive to be installed as INT13 devices, if so desired.
The current version of UT13.EXE version 1.4 DOES NOT format an optical device,
However, in the next release of the drivers at the end of this month, this will
be corrected.
