SUBJECT: Novell Netware Version 3.12
Novell Netware 3.12 (Released last month) ships with AHA1540.DSK (Adaptec«)
Driver and the BT312.DSK (Buslogic«) Driver.
The AMI-SCSI Express Driver for Novell Netware package supplied by AMI with its
SCSI controllers is not compatible with Novell Netware 3.12
The BT312 Driver is not compatible with the above mentioned SCSI Controllers at
this time. However, the Adaptec Drivers (AHA1540) may be used as an alternative.
The following is an example of how to use the AHA1540.DSK, if all options
available are to be used:
:load aha1540 port=330 above16=y dev_enable=05 verbose=y
Variables in the command are:
Port values are 330, 130, 134, 334, 234 and 230.
Above16 can be either "Y" or "N". Above16=y is required if the amount of host
computer memory is greater than or equal to 16MB.
Dev_enable is a bit-specific option for the disk device which is not to be
registered to NetWare, such as devices that will be controlled via ASPI
(aspitran.dsk), e.g. third-party RAID software. In the example above,
Dev_enable=05 would mean that SCSI ID 0 and SCSI ID 2 are registered devices.
The default of this option is FF which means that all SCSI device are
registered to NetWare.
"Verbose=y" will display the current configuration as the driver is being
loaded.
ASPI-compatible applications such as SBACKUP.NLM, ARCSERVE, COREL RAID, and
OPTINET require an ASPI-Manager(ASPITRAN.DSK) which is auto-loaded and required
for AHA1540.DSK to operate.
