AccessibleDrivers = [* | comma delimited list of driver names]
This option controls which operating system drivers (and therefore
which host adapters) will be managed by the SCSI Manager. The
drivers are identified by the driver name returned when the SCSI
Manager performs a host adapter inquiry. The names specified are
inclusive – if a driver name does not appear in the list, then the SCSI
Manager will ignore all host adapters which are accessed through
that driver.
This option is especially useful when the I/O Manager includes
multiple manager support, for example simultaneous SCSI and
RAID host adapters. The SCSI Manager can be informed through
this option to leave the management of the RAID host adapters to
the RAID Manager. The option can also be used to inform the SCSI
Manager to ignore any drivers that may cause problems, such as
third party device drivers.
The * syntax is used to specify that all host adapters are accessible. If
the line:
AccessibleDrivers = *
appears in the .ini file, then the SCSI Manager will manage all host
adapters it discovers.
The comma delimited list of driver names specifies, by name, which
drivers will be managed by the SCSI Manager. The names are
treated as prefixes. For example, specifying a name of AIC will allow
the SCSI Manager to manage all host adapters whose driver names
begin with the three character sequence AIC. The name may be
specified in as many characters as the user wishes, so that the list
might specify either a family of drivers or a specific driver. The
names specified are not case sensitive.
The default is to manage all drivers beginning with AIC and AHA
(although the driver names vary somewhat from system to system).
The default allows popular Adaptec host adapters, such as the
AHA-1540 and AHA-2940, to be managed by the SCSI Manager. The
default is equivalent to the .INI specification:
AccessibleDrivers = AIC, AHA, ADAPTEC AIC, ADAPTEC
AHA, ADPT AIC, ADPT AHA
