Introduction

The HP NetRAID and HP NetRAID-1 adapters are high performance, intelligent PCI-to-SCSI host
adapters with RAID control capabilities. The HP NetRAID Series Installation and Configuration
Guide
describes the installation and initial configuration of the adapters. This HP NetRAID Series
User Guide
describes hardware, troubleshooting, configuration, and management features and
contains an extensive glossary of HP NetRAID terms and technologies.

The identical configuration and management utilities can be used with the HP NetRAID and HP
NetRAID-1 adapters. HP NetRAID Express Tools resides in the adapter’s BIOS and is independent
of the operating system. The two NOS-specific utilities are:

HP NetRAID Assistant: use with Microsoft Windows NT

HP NetRAID Config: use with Novell NetWare, IBM OS/2, SCO UNIX, and Banyan VINES

This guide contains installation instructions for these NOS-specific utilities.
