Step 5. Install optional utility software, if desired.
Perform steps 4 and 5 after the SNC 5100 is installed and connected to the host
system.

Installing the SAN Explorer

The SAN Explorer software is only available for hosts running the Windows
NT or Windows 2000 operating systems. It allows you to view the LUN
mapping through switches to which your SNC 5100 may be attached.
It includes the Host Registration Service. The Host Registration Service
provides the SNC 5100 with periodic host status information including the host
name, host type and HBA. The default notification period is 15 minutes.
See the readme file on the CD-ROM for installation instructions. For software
updates, visit www.adic.com.

Installing the Host Registration Service

The Host Registration Service is available without the SAN Explorer software
for host operating systems other than Windows NT or Windows 2000. It
provides the SNC 5100 with periodic host status information including the host
name, host type and HBA. The default notification period is 15 minutes.
See the readme file on the CD-ROM for installation instructions. For software
updates, visit www.adic.com.

Power-Up and Boot Sequence Guidelines

The SNC 5100 scans the SCSI buses after it boots. If you add or remove SCSI
devices after the SNC 5100 has booted, it will not detect the changes until you
invoke a SCSI rescan or reboot.
Before you turn on or restart the hosts that are connected to the SNC 5100, you
must wait until the SNC 5100 has finished booting. You will know that the
SNC 5100 has finished booting when the RDY LED on the user panel blinks at
intervals of one second.
