Booting Os/2 From A Smart-2Dh Array Controller Drive - Compaq 219700-001 - ProLiant - 1500 Reference Manual

Booting OS/2 from a SMART-2DH Array
Controller Drive
This section describes additional information on booting a system from a
Compaq SMART-2DH Array Controller.
The CPQARRAY.ADD driver must always be present when booting from a
SMART-2DH Controller (the Compaq IAES is not a bootable device).
If a SMART-2DH Controller is the primary disk controller, edit the
CONFIG.SYS file and make sure the "BASEDEV=CPQARRAY.ADD" entry in
the file is the first BASEDEV entry present. This will guarantee that the
CPQARRAY.ADD driver will be the first ADD driver loaded and thus cause
OS/2 to assign the first hard drive on the first SMART-2DH Controller as the
boot drive. For example:
BASEDEV=CPQARRAY.ADD
BASEDEV=CPQ53CX.ADD
If OS/2 will be booting from another controller, order the other controller
first:
BASEDEV=AMSI02.ADD
BASEDEV=CPQARRAY.ADD
