Configuring Non-Raid Disk Drives - Intergraph InterServe 80 SL System Setup

Configuring Non-RAID Disk Drives

NOTE This section only applies to systems that use non-RAID disk drives.
The InterServe 80 SL Rack Mount system contains three main non-RAID hardware
components:
u
A disk drive section
u
Up to four non-RAID disk drives
u
One SCSI controller (also known as an adapter)
The standard non-RAID hardware is pre-configured by Intergraph Computer Systems before
shipment. The standard configuration includes one non-RAID disk drive (with pre-installed
operating system and system software) for the disk drive section and one SCSI controller. The
disk drive is installed in slot 0 of the disk drive section, and has the following label to identify
the drive:
4 GB
ADP
The spaces above ADP, CH, and ID are filled in before shipment to identify the drive.
u
ADP means the SCSI controller (adapter) number connected to the SCSI section.
u
CH means the SCSI bus channel of the adapter (each adapter has two channels).
u
ID means the identification number of the drive in the slot.
NOTE When the standard disk drive is configured by Intergraph Computer Systems (as described
below), it assumes the ID number of the internal disk section slot.
The disk drive section is connected to the SCSI controller by internal SCSI cables.
Intergraph Computer Systems configures one non-RAID drive before shipment. The non-
RAID drive 0 has a 2 GB NTFS system disk partition; the rest of drive 0 is formatted as
another NTFS partition for a total of two partitions. If you order additional non-RAID disk
drives from Intergraph Computer Systems, each additional disk drive is formatted as one
NTFS partition.
CAUTION If you change the factory-set configuration of non-RAID disk drives , you must reinstall the
system software. See Chapter 7 for instructions.
NOTE For technical information about the disk drive section, refer to the System Reference . For
technical information on the SCSI controller, refer to the documentation delivered with the
SCSI controller.
