AcceleRAID 170LP Installation Guide

• odineb.nlm – This is a module combining the Open Data-link interface

and the Novell Event Bus (NEB). The NEB controls the device drivers
through the Open Data-link.

If the NetWare installation process determines that the server supports PCI
Hot Plug and detects the appropriate driver, the installation process adds the
following two LOAD commands to the autoexec.ncf file:

• LOAD sys:\system\driver_name

This command loads the bus driver (for Compaq, this is cpqsbd.nlm).
After this command is executed, NetWare autoloads ncm.nlm (Novel
Configuration Manger).

• #LOAD sys:\system\ncmcon.nlm

The # symbol comments out the command; however, if you want the
Configuration Manager Console (ncmcon.nlm) to be loaded every time
the system is started, remove the pound sign (#) at the beginning of the
line.

This command loads the Novell Configuration Manager Console,
which then loads odineb.nlm. These commands can also be executed at
the server console prompt.

Perform the following steps:

1. Install NetWare 5 Service Patch 1.

2. Install the Mylex GAM DMI driver.

3. Restart the server. The autoexec.ncf will execute and load the drivers

and start ncmcon.nlm (the PCI Hot Plug user interface).

Note

If any LOAD line is commented out in autoexec.ncf,
the corresponding driver can be loaded manually by
executing the LOAD command (as listed in
autoexec.ncf) at the server console prompt.
