Installing the Mylex Disk Array Controller into an Existing

NetWare 5.0 System

If NetWare 5.0 is already installed and you wish to add a Mylex Disk Array

Controller later, the controller will be a secondary (non-bootable) controller.

After installing the controller hardware and configuring a disk array, follow

the procedure below to add the necessary controller drivers.

1. With NetWare Server 5.0 loaded and running, load the NetWare

program by typing the following at the console prompt:

: load nwconfig

and press <Enter>.

2. Choose “Driver Options” in the Installation Options menu.

3. Copy NWASPI.CDM (for GAM support) from the Novell distribution

CD-ROM.

• Be sure you are in this directory; \DRIVERS\STORAGE\ and copy

to this directory; C:\NWSERVER.

• Edit the STARTUP.NCF file by adding NWASPI.CDM.

• Add LOAD NWASPI.CDM right after the line, LOAD

SCSICD.CDM

4. Press the arrow keys to return to installation.

5. Choose “Configure disk and storage device drivers” in the Driver

Options menu.

6. Choose “Select an additional driver” in the Additional Driver Actions

menu.

NetWare scans for controllers that do not have drivers already loaded.

7. At the “Select a driver” box, press <Ins> to choose to install an unlisted

driver.

8. Insert the NT/NW drivers diskette into the diskette drive.

9. Press <F3> to specify the path of the NetWare driver you’re about to

install.
