TIP
HP recommends you to always use the A6829A's maximum bus width
(16 bits), unless you have Narrow (8-bit) devices on the bus and you are
experiencing problems with the connection.
You can set the A6829A's bus width in one or two ways, depending on the
HP-UX system the adapter is installed in (refer to Table 2-2 on page 24).
To set the bus width for A6829A HBA installed in PA-RISC based
system, see "Setting Bus Width for A6829A Host Bus Adapter Installed

To set the bus width for A6829A HBA installed in Itanium®-based
system, see "Setting Bus Width for A6829A Host Bus Adapter Installed
