Installing the Driver

The instructions in this section may be used to install the initial driver for a new
Smart Array 221 Controller installation or to upgrade the driver in an existing
OS/2 server/Smart Array 221 Controller system. If you use SmartStart to install
OS/2 and drivers on a new server, you can skip this section and you do not need
to create the OS/2 SSD.

Creating a Support Software Diskette (SSD)

The OS/2 driver for the Smart Array 221 Controller is located on the Compaq
SmartStart and Support Software CD that was supplied in the Smart Array 221
Controller Option Kit. To gain access to the driver you first need to create the
OS/2 SSD. This diskette contains the latest operating system software, drivers,
and supporting documentation for all Compaq equipment supported by OS/2. To
create this diskette:
1.
Boot the server from the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD.
2.
Select Create Support Software from the Compaq System Utilities screen.
3.
Select Create Support Software Diskettes from CD only from the
Diskette Builder screen.
4.
Scroll down the list and select Compaq OS/2 2.x Support Software.
5.
Follow the instructions on the screen to create the OS/2 SSD diskette.
