Summary of Contents for ICP Interactive UNIX

  • Page 2 (720KB) (reading the floppy disk can take some time). During installation, a GDT driver cor- responding to the IRQ used by the ICP Controller has to be selected. As discussed in chap- ter B of this user’s manual, the PCI System BIOS automatically assigns an IRQ to a PCI INT.
  • Page 3 As discussed in chapter B of this user’s manual, the PCI System BIOS automati- cally assigns an IRQ to a PCI INT. The IRQ used by a ICP Controller is displayed by the GDT BIOS after a cold boot. After having successfully installed the basic Interactive system, use InstallPkg to install the software package OS File Management, kernel Configuration, and after- wards the GDT driver software.
  • Page 4 SCSI-IDs, but according to the host-drive numbers of GDTSETUP. The ICP Controller needs host-drives in order to be able to link several SCSI devices to form a higher structure (i.e., RAID 5). The sequence of the single host-drives can be changed very easily by having GDTSETUP sort them in its "Configure Host Drives"...
  • Page 5 SCSI channel, whereas UNIX can only manage host adapters with one SCSI chan- nel. Therefore, the GDT UNIX driver has to make the appropriate transformations. In the PCI computer are two ICP Controllers (HA 0 = 1st GDT, HA 1 = 2nd GDT), each having two SCSI channels.
  • Page 6 /dev/rgdth by means of "link"; this device file has to be placed on a device of a GDT Host Drive. For example, on ICP Controller 0 we have the Host Drive 1 which is HA 0, Target-ID 0, LUN 1 under Interactive Unix. The corresponding special device file is /dev/rdsk/c0t0dl1s0 (c0 = HA, t0 = Target-ID 0, d0 = LUN 0, s0 = Unix partition).
