Configuring integrated SAS hardware RAID

Please refer to the Appendix A. for the integrated SAS
hardware RAID configuration.

Installation Tips

NOTE. There is no built-in driver for Integrated SAS hardware
RAID in the SCO UnixWare 7.1.4. You need an external USB
floppy drive for applying driver during the OS installation.
NOTE. To support the external USB floppy drive, the USB
Controller must be enabled. However, please disable the USB
2.0 Controller option with BIOS Setup Utility to ensure SCO
UnixWare 7.1.4 can recognize the external USB floppy drive.
You could find USB 2.0 Controller option in Advanced > USB
Configuration menu with BIOS Setup Utility.
1.
Make the driver diskette.
2.
Boot the system with UnixWare 7.1.4 Installation CD and
follow the instructions.
3.
When the below screen displayed, please insert the
Integrated SAS hardware RAID driver diskette into the
external USB floppy drive and select Install HBA drivers
option. Then, press F10 to continue.
If you have Host Bus Adapter drivers on a diskette, CD-ROM, or
removable USB storage media, select "Install HBA drivers",
insert the media and press <F10> to continue. If you do not
have HBA media to install, select "Proceed with installation"
and press<F10> to continue.
4.
At the network setup stage, select Defer to skip the
network installation. Install the network adapter after
OS installation finished.
