Operating System Support
The MegaCLI Configuration Utility functions under the Novell
®
NetWare
®
, SCO
®
OpenServer™, SCO UnixWare
®
, Solaris
®
, FreeBSD
®
, and MS-DOS operating systems in the
same way that it does under the Windows and Linux
®
operating systems. All commands
supported for the Windows and Linux operating systems are supported for the
NetWare, SCO, and Solaris operating systems as well.
For the SCO OpenServer and SCO UnixWare operating systems, LSI provides an
executable file that you can execute from any folder, and an image of the same
executable file on a disk drive. The image file name is MegaCLI.image. The disk is
provided so that you can distribute MegaCLI and install the executable file later as
needed.
For the Solaris operating system, LSI releases MegaCLI as a package that can be
installed like any other package installation in Solaris.
