I. LSI SCSI Driver Installation

A single driver (*HAM) is provided for the Novell NetWare 3.12, 4.XX, and 5.0
environments. This document explains how to install and use the SDMS NWPA
SCSI Host Adapter Module (HAM) driver for NetWare. The SDMS NWPA solution
consists of the device drivers, SYMHINW.HAM and LSI_U3NW.HAM and the
NetWare 4.XX installation files SYMHINW.DDI and LSI_U3NW.DDI.
SYMHINW.HAM and LSI_U3NW.HAM are NWPA Host Adapter Modules
(HAMs). In order to support SCSI devices, load the HAM in conjunction with a
SCSI Custom Device Module (CDM). Novell has developed generic CDMs to support
SCSI-2 hard drives, SCSI CD-ROM devices, SCSI Magneto Optical devices, SCSI
tape devices, and SCSI changer devices. In addition, third party vendors are
developing CDMs to support their specific devices. In the following, the NetWare
5.x, 4.xx and 3.12 installation procedure are listed for the reference.

A. Preparing a LSI Driver Diskette

The SDMS™ NWPA drivers for the Novell NetWare operating system are located
on the ASUS Driver Support CD at:

Copy all the drivers into a diskette and it will be used for the NetWare system
installation. Label it as “LSI driver for NetWare”.
