Installing the Driver in an Existing NetWare v4.xx Installation
---------------------------------------------------------------
To update or install the AHA2940.HAM or AIC78U2.HAM driver when NetWare v4.xx
is already installed, follow the instructions in this section. The procedures
are similar for all versions of NetWare. Procedures that are specific to a
NetWare version are noted when necessary.
1. Make a backup copy of the old driver (if it exists) before installing
the new driver.
2. Copy the AHA2940.HAM or AIC78U2.HAM driver from the 7800 Family Manager
Set v3.01 diskette for NetWare into the server's startup directory
(e.g. c:\nwserver, c:\server.40, etc.) on your hard disk. This
overwrites any existing version of the driver in the directory.
3. Refer to section "Installing the NWPA Driver for Ultra2SCSI When
Installing NetWare, NetWare v3.1x" to get the NWPA_312.EXE Patch file
from the Novell Web Site, and the instructions to execute the patch
file. Follow steps 3 - 12 in that section.
4. If necessary, modify the load command line in the STARTUP.NCF so that
the proper path to the driver and all appropriate command line
options are specified. See the "Loading the Driver at Server Bootup
and Command Line Options sections, below.)
The correct syntax to load the 7800 Family Manager driver is:
load [pathname]aha2940 [options]
or
load [pathname]aic78u2 [options]
Command line options are not case sensitive. Placing commas between
command line options is optional. See "Command Line Options", below,
for possible values.
Loading the Driver at Server Bootup
-----------------------------------
To automatically load the AHA2940.HAM or AIC78U2.HAM at server bootup, the
STARTUP.NCF file (usually located in your server's startup directory) must
contain a load command line that specifies the location of the driver and any
appropriate command line options (see Command Line Options, below).
For additional information on the STARTUP.NCF file, refer to your NetWare
documentation.
The correct syntax to load the driver is
load [pathname]aha2940 [options]
or
load [pathname]aic78u2 [options]
For example, the command line to load the driver from the c:\nwserver
directory, with the "verbose=" option on is
load c:\nwserver\aha2940 verbose=y
or
load c:\nwserver\aic78u2 verbose=y
Command line options are not case sensitive. Placing commas between command
line options is optional. See Command Line Options, below, for possible
values.
To modify the STARTUP.NCF file, follow these steps:
(NOTE: You can also use your DOS text editor to modify the STARTUP.NCF
file.)
1 Type load install at the NetWare prompt and press ENTER.
2 Select the appropriate menu choice that allows you to edit the
STARTUP.NCF file.
3 Make the necessary changes. When you are done, press ESC.

Known Issues
=-=-=-=-=-=-=
o There is a known problem which occurs during the installation of Netware
4.0X, that involves the DDI file used during the initialization of the
host adapter device driver. The DDI file does not contain all the
possible slot number options available on all PCI systems, as there are
too many combinations. As a result, during the installation procedure,
NetWare will report that it is unable to load the driver in the given
amount of time. This is because the DDI file does not contain any
slot options, which causes NetWare not to load the driver. Note, however,
that this is not an error. The user simply needs to go to the console
screen and manually enter in the correct slot number and installation
will continue.
o A second known problem exists that will hang the server after loading the
host adapter device driver. This problem involves targets that do not
support scanning of multiple luns, with the command line option
lun_enable. The user simply needs to set the command line option
multlun_targets to only scan targets that support multiple luns. This
problem is known to occur with Quantum Empire 540S drives.
o Novell recommends not using IRQ 15 for host adapters. If your system
bios allows the assignment of IRQs, change your adapters IRQ to a value
other than 15.
o On NetWare 4.11, without media in the CD-ROM drive, and using built in
driver support for CD-ROMs, the message "No CD-ROM Devices Registered
with NetWare." is reported, if "cd device list" is issued.
o There is a known problem with some hard drives that are less than or
equal to 1 GB. If these drives were previously formatted using the
Adaptec 7800 Family Manager Set v2.1x driver for Netware, and are now
being upgraded to the 7800 Family Manager Set v3.01 driver, the user
may have problems in finding the device during initialization. If
this occurs, use the following command line option in your STARTUP.NCF
file:
ext_tran=n
o On some system configurations and during a first time installation or
when upgrading to the 7800 Family Manager Set v3.01 driver, the user
may see a window with the following warning message:
"One or more partitions on drive 0 are inconsistent with the driver
geometries (xxx heads, xx sectors, and xxx cylinders) that NetWare
is using. You may continue and edit the partition anyway, although
this inconsistency could create problems later on."
This message is shown when the "Installation Options" window appears,
and the user highlights and selects "Disk Options", followed by "Modify
Disk Partitions and Hot Fix". The user should simply continue to the
"Disk Partitions Options" window to edit the partition, and installation
will complete successfully.
o The AIC78U2.HAM or AHA2940.HAM driver will not load if older versions of the
NWPA.NLM file have been used. To fix this problem, use the updated version of
the NWPA.NLM file that is included in this diskette. (#12046, #12140,
#12268)
o The AIC78U2.HAM driver requires a minimum of 16 MB of memory. (#12459)
o When starting a NetWare server with two Ultra2 host adapters, the
error message "Unbound Device Object" might appear. Manually unloading
and reloading the driver will fix the problem, as well as removing
the "slot=xx" option in the STARTUP.NCF file (and then selecting the
default slot number(s)). This is being addressed by Novell. (#13343)
o When loading server.exe with the ""load aic78u2.ham slot=# lun_enable""
switch, the server locks up while scanning the LUNs. This is
being addressed by Novell. (#13135)
o On some SMP systems, if the IRQ setting is set to "Auto" in the
system's BIOS then NW 4.11 installation will hang at loading a NIC
driver. This problem was tested with a Tyan P5 SMP, and it did
show up. The problem did not show up on the DEC SMP system. This is
being addressed by Novell. (#12764)
o Certain systems will not run Sbackup under NetWare v3.12. NetWare
v4.11 runs it with no problems. This is a Novell issue which is
currently being addressed. (#12199)
o Some systems experienced problems loading NetWare when loading
the AIC7870.DSK and ASPICD.DSK drivers after the AIC78U2.HAM
driver. The workaround is to load the DSK drivers before the
HAM driver.

Additional Notes
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
o The Netware driver has been submitted for Novell Certification.
o All of Adaptec's NetWare drivers have full support for standard
SCSI disk drives, "NetWare Ready" drives, and removable media disk
drives (including optical drives).
o For NetWare patches and other latest information, reference the
Novell website at http://developer.novell.com/cgi-bin/devnet
o If your file server does a lot of IO operations and you want to try
optimizing its performance, you can adjust the "max_tags=?" command
line switch. This switch controls the maximum number of tagged
commands outstanding at a given device. Refer to your disk-drive's
documentation to determine if tagged-queuing is supported, and the
maximum number of outstanding commands supported. Its default value
is 16.
The following are examples of how to change this feature:
For all 7800 Manager Set host adapters:
:load aha2940 max_tags=xx
The first example shows how to use the max_tags command line option.
The max_tags parameter can be set between 1 and 128. Larger values
give the drives more opportunity for optimization, but take up more
memory in the server.
For several reasons, you may want to use a lower value of max_tags.
For some drives, maximum performance is achieved with
a max_tags less than the maximum supported by the drive.
Also, some drives may not support the driver's maximum count of 128,
or may suffer starvation problems with large counts, leading to
drive deactivation.

Command Line Options
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
(NOTE: Possible values for command line options can be enabled with ON, Y,
or 1 without distinction, or can be disabled with OFF, N, or 0.)
The following table shows driver command line options:
OPTION DEFINITION POSSIBLE DEFAULT
VALUES VALUES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
flush_diskreq= Send occasionally Hexadecimal 0 (Disabled for
ordered tags to targets 0-FFFF all targets)
lun_enable= LUN scan enable mask Hexadecimal 1 (Scan LUN
on all targets 0 - FF 0 only)
max_tags= Maximum number of 1 - 128 16
tagged I/O's which will
be active per device
multlun_targets= Bitmask that enables Hexadecimal FFFF (LUNs
LUNS on selected 0 - FFFF on all targets)
targets
verbose= Display host adapter Y, N N
settings
slot= Obtains a physical slot Dependent on NetWare prompts
number for the host system user to choose

Bit Mask Options
----------------
Use this example to aid in calculating bit mask options hex values. Each
SCSI device ID 0-7 (or 0-15 for wide host adapters) is enabled by a 1 in
its corresponding bit position. In this example, lun_enable=05 enables
scanning for LUNs 0 and 2 on all targets.
