Overview The single-ended and differential host adapters are UltraSCSI devices that enable you to increase the available number of SCSI ports for adding external devices. The host adapters are designed to be installed in SPARC™ systems running at least Solaris 2.5.1 Hardware:4/97 operating system.
Installing the Host Adapter Read these instructions and the installation instructions in your system documentation before installing the host adapter. To Prepare for Installation 1. Determine which version of the operating system you are running. Look at the /etc/release file and make sure the operating system installed is at least Solaris 2.5.1 Hardware: 4/97.
Note – A single-ended host adapter is shown in . There are slight FIGURE 1-1 variations in components between the single-ended and differential host adapters. To Install the Host Adapter 1. Open the system. Refer to your system documentation for information about filler panels for your system.

6. Make sure that the switches and jumpers are correctly set. For the single-ended host adapter, confirm the following settings: Make sure that all elements of switches U1 and U2 are off. Make sure that jumper TP9 is open. For the differential host adapter, confirm the following settings: Make sure that all jumpers (TP1, TP2, TP3, TP5, TP6) are open.
14. Reboot your system using the boot -r command. For more information on the boot -r command, refer to the System Administrator’s Guide for your operating system. To Test the Installation With SunVTS SunVTS is a diagnostic program that exercises your system to verify the functionality, reliability, and configuration of your host adapter card.
A P P E N D I X Understanding UltraSCSI This chapter provides general information about UltraSCSI configuration rules. Target Devices For UltraSCSI performance of 40 Mbytes/sec, there can be a maximum of seven devices connected to each port on the host adapter card. Up to 15 devices can be connected to each port on the host adapter card at 20 Mbytes/sec.
Differential Host Adapter The differential host adapter can support up to 15 devices per port on a SCSI bus length of 24 meters (78.74 feet). Single-Ended Host Adapter For UltraSCSI performance, you must adhere to the following cable length restrictions: For 1 to 3 devices, the maximum bus length per port is 3 meters (9.84 feet)
Cabling and Termination Use the following cabling guidelines to ensure proper device cabling and termination: In order to maintain UltraSCSI performance, all cables used must be UltraSCSI compliant. The SCSI bus must be correctly terminated. Most Sun devices use autotermination. See the documentation that came with the device. If external mass storage devices consist of 68-pin devices and 50-pin devices, connect the 68-pin devices to the system first and terminate the chain with a 50-pin device and its terminator.
