Creating the Peripheral Adapter Support
Software Diskettes
The Banyan VINES 6.x, 7.x, and 8.x driver, installation procedures, and other
information for the Smart Array 3200 Controller are located on the Compaq
SmartStart and Support Software CD (supplied in the Smart Array 3200
Controller option kit). To access the driver, create the Peripheral Adapter
Support Software for VINES 6.0 and 7.0 diskettes. These diskettes contain the
latest drivers and support documentation for all Compaq equipment (except
NICs) supported by Banyan VINES 6.x, 7.x, and 8.x. To create the diskettes:
1. Boot the server from the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD.
2. From the Compaq System Utilities screen, select Create Support
Software.
3. From the Diskette Builder screen, select Create Support Software
Diskettes from CD only.
4. Scroll down the list and select Peripheral Adapter Support Software for
VINES 6.0 and 7.0.
5. Follow the instructions on the screen to create the diskettes.
Additional Information
The last Peripheral Adapter Support Software diskette is a bootable DOS
documentation diskette. The README.SSD file on this diskette contains a short
description of the drivers (a single Compaq driver supports the Smart Array
series of controllers) and includes a procedure for installing the Smart Array
3200 Controller driver. To access this file, follow the instructions on the diskette
label.
Installing the Driver
To install the Smart Array 3200 Controller driver, follow the installation
procedures specified in the README.SSD file.
Installation of the Smart Array 3200 Controller is complete. Reboot the server
to begin using the array controller.
