Chapter 2
NetWare
Overview
This chapter describes installation procedures and the functionality of the
Mylex Disk Array Controller drivers for Novell NetWare. The software for
the drivers is provided on the appropriate Software Kit distribution diskette
and CD-ROM.
Mylex Disk Array Controller Driver Files for NetWare
All hardware installation, system configuration, and disk array controller
configuration must be properly completed before proceeding with the
NetWare driver installation. These basic installation procedures follow the
Novell Installation manual, with only the few minor differences that are
described in this section.
The subdirectory \netware on the DOS-formatted NT4/NW Drivers Software
Kit diskette and on the CD-ROM contains the following:
MDAC.HAM: The driver to support Mylex Disk Array Controllers
with NetWare.
MDAC.DDI: NetWare installation file for MDAC.HAM.
Tape, Disk, and CD-ROM Support
Tape drive support is available to the Mylex Disk Array Controller under
NetWare by means of the NWTAPE.CDM. Most NetWare applications that
communicate through ASPI on the server will work with the controller when
the NWASPI.CDM module is loaded. Disk drive support is provided through
the SCSIHD.CDM module.
