Peripheral Device Type Parameters for Various
Operating Systems:
A host can not “see” a RAID controller UNLESS a logical unit has
been created and mapped to host LUN via the RS-232/front panel
interface; or that the "in-band SCSI" connection with the host is
established. If users want to start configuring a RAID system from
the host before any RAID configuration is made, the host will not be
able to “see” the RAID controller. In order for a host to “see” the
controller, it will be necessary to define the controller as a peripheral
device.
Different host operating systems require different adjustments.
Look at the table below to find the proper settings for your host
operating system. References to “Peripheral Device Qualifier” and
“Device Support for Removable Media” are also included.
