slot numbers separated by commas is displayed. Press <Esc> to clear the command
line.
NOTE: To load the driver from your hard-disk drive, the
aic78u2.ham
driver and
nwaspi.cdm
module must be copied from your IntranetWare driver diskette to a
directory on your hard-disk drive (usually the server's start-up directory [for example,
c:\nwserver
]).
The syntax to load the aic78u2.ham driver follows:
load [
pathname
]\aic78u2.ham [
options
] slot=
x
For example, the command line to load the driver from the c:\nwserver directory with
the verbose= option on and a slot number of 10002 follows:
ORDGF?QZVHUYHU?DLFXKDPYHUERVH \VORW 
NOTE: For each Adaptec 78
xx
host adapter installed, a separate
load
command line
must be included in the
startup.ncf
file. The slot number (
slot=
) identifies the specific
adapter.
To modify the startup.ncf file, follow these steps:
1. At the IntranetWare prompt, type
LQVWDOO
and press <Enter>.
2. Choose the menu selection that allows you to edit the startup.ncf file.
3. Make the necessary changes. When you are finished, press <F10>.

To be fully certified as IntranetWare Yes, Tested and Approved, a drive and host
adapter must both pass a qualification process that takes place before you see the
product. The goals of IntranetWare testing are to simplify installation and provide the
highest quality disk subsystem.
Adaptec 78
xx
series host adapters and their drivers are fully tested and approved for
IntranetWare. This means that you can purchase a IntranetWare drive (certified as
Yes, Tested and Approved) from a vendor, connect it to your system or host
adapter, partition it, and create a volume without any compatibility concerns.
NOTE: Dell recommends using only Dell-tested drives.
Adaptecs aic78u2.ham driver module is flexible enough to allow you to connect SCSI
drives that are tested and approved for IntranetWare, as well as standard SCSI drives,
to a single host adapter. The driver registers each hard-disk drive accordingly.
Drive registration is a user-transparent process; no user interaction is required. You
can tell that the drive has been detected as IntranetWare-tested and IntranetWare-
approved if the message
1HW:DUH<HV7HVWHGDQG$SSURYHG
is included in the
drive description string that appears when you run monitor.nlm (disk options).
