Hi ,

Is it possible to use and test IDR Process with another SCSI card (IBM Ultra160) than IBM ultra320 ...

Also check whether latest Firmware of SCSI is updated ?

Revert for any further Query
Hope this will help you


Thank you

I do not have other SCSI card. And I will confirm scsi bios.

My Adaptec ultra320(29320ALP)'s firmware is v4.30.1. This is latest version.

Hello,

I did NET STOP "Removable Storage" of command. However, my tape device was not displayed yet. Which SCSI card will it work fine with tape device ?

Hello
We Recommend you to check that with your Hardware manufacturer. He will be able to let you know what SCSI card will be compatible with your Device.


thanks

Hello,

I already checked your compatibility list for Blackup exec10.d. Why can hardware manufacturer say about this ? This product is from you, right ? If this SCSI card is not worked with IDS, you should not list in compatibility list.

Hello,



Kindly perform the following:

1. Boot the computer using the IDR Bootable CD.

2. When prompted during the IDR process, choose Custom setup

3. When the additional controllers window is displayed, click S to specify
additional controllers

4. When prompted, insert the THIRD PARTY OEM driver disk

After these drivers have been specified, the IDR process should continue
normally.


Thank You,

Shweta
