During the installation UnixWare prompts you to insert a Host Bus Adapter (HBA) diskette.
Insert the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 installation diskette. If you do not have the Intel
RAID Controller SRCU32 installation diskette for the operating system that you are installing,
then create it before continuing. See Chapter 2 for instructions to create this disk.
3. During the installation of UnixWare, you will be prompted to install the Network Information
Services (NIS) package. By default the installation will configure the system as an NIS client.
See the system administrator for configuration of the NIS services.
NOTE
Installation of this service may take an extended period of time.
If you do not plan on using the NIS or there is not an NIS server present on the network that you
are installing this system onto, defer installation of NIS at this time by pressing <F8> at the NIS
configuration screen.
4. After completing the OS installation, proceed to the next paragraph to complete the Intel RAID
Controller SRCU32 installation.

Installation of the RAID Software Suite for UnixWare

1. Ensure that the minimum configuration requirements have been met. See the Minimum

2. Login into the UnixWare server with administrative (ROOT) rights.
3. Insert the RAID Software Suite CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive and mount the CD-ROM.
Create a directory to mount the file. For example, type "mkdir cdfiles" at the prompt.
Mount the CD-ROM to the folder by typing:

Coordinates of SCSI Devices

Host Adapter Number (HA)

The host adapter number assigned to the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 is derived from the PCI
slot number of the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32. Therefore, if there is only one Intel RAID
Controller SRCU32 installed in the PCI bus computer system, the host adapter number is 0. If
there are two Intel RAID Controller SRCU32s installed, the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 with
the lower PCI Slot number is assigned host adapter number 0 and the Intel RAID Controller
SRCU32 with the higher PCI slot number is assigned host adapter 1.
