Installing device drivers for OS/2

This section provides two sets of instructions for installing the ServeRAID device driver: one that you can
use during the initial OS/2 installation and one that you can use if OS/2 already is installed.

Installing the files while installing OS/2

You can use the following instructions to install the ServeRAID device driver files while installing OS/2
Warp Server.
Notes:
1. If the battery-backup option is not installed and any logical drives are set to write-back mode, the
logical drives must be changed to write-through mode during the OS/2 installation. After the
installation is complete, the logical drives can be changed to write-back mode.
2. When booting the OS/2 Diskette 1 in Drive A after the Logo Screen appears and the "Please Wait"
messages, you might receive the following message:
Initializing Raid SCSI Subsystem.
Unable to allocate IRQ resources.
RMCreate Device Adapter failure.
RMCreate Device (disk) failure.
RMCreate Device (disk) failure.
RMCreate Device (disk) failure.
RMCreate Device (disk) failure.
If you receive these messages, disregard them during installation. The installation will complete
successfully. After the installation completes, install an updated RESOURCE.SYS file that is available
from the OS/2 Device Driver Pak On-Line Web site at the following address:
http://service.software.ibm.com/os2ddpak/index.htm
At this Web site, follow these steps to obtain the updated RESOURCE.SYS file:
Scroll down to the bottom and click Yes, I agree. Show the Device Category list.
Scroll down and select OS/2 Component Updates from the list.
Select OS/2 Base Device Driver Updates.
Select RESOURCE.SYS update; pre-requisite for updated IBM RAID Driver.
Follow the instructions at the Web site for installing the RESOURCE.SYS update after you have
installed OS/2.
