Supported Operating Systems for the RAID Array 3000
You have purchased support for the Windows NT operating system version 4.0 with
Service pack 6a and Windows 2000 operating system. The supported host adapter is the
SWXA3-BD differential PCI host adapter.
Supported Configurations
Your RAID Array 3000 contains a single dual-ported controller. This allows support for
eight SCSI logical units (LUNs) per port, or a total of 16 LUNs per controller. A second
controller (DS-HSZ22-AA) can be added for redundancy and performance. The
minimum version of controller firmware for both controllers is D11U. The controller
firmware contained on the CD-ROM is D11X (in the \firmware directory) that is part of
this kit. If the controller is running an earlier revision of firmware (D10I, D11O, D11U,
or D11V), you will need to upgrade the firmware prior to making the RAID Array 3000
operational.
You can create a Windows NT boot partition on the RAID Array 3000 storage
subsystem. The Windows NT boot partition can be at most 4 GB in size. Ensure that the
host adapter is configured to default parameters (BIOS enable, wide negotiation, >1 GB
translation).
