Introduction

The Hewlett-Packard®NetRAID-4M™provides powerful disk array

support in servers that have a PCI (Peripheral Component

Interconnect) bus. The HP NetRAID-4M has four SCSI Ultra 3

channels, and each channel has the equivalent functionality of a

separate SCSI Ultra 3 channel.

This installation guide explains how to install the HP NetRAID-4M,

connect SCSI devices to it, install the HP NetRAID-4M device

drivers and the Controller Management Software, allowing you to

manage the controller and its attached storage devices.

Installation Overview

The following steps are required to install the HP NetRAID-4M

hardware and software:

1Install the hardware:

■Install the HP NetRAID-4M in the server.

■Connect the SCSI devices to the HP NetRAID-4M.

For more information, see Chapter 2, Installing the Hardware.

2Optionally create and configure containers using the

HP NetRAID-4M BIOS.

For more information, see Appendix B, Using the BIOS

Container Configuration Utility.

3Install the HP NetRAID-4M device drivers.

For more information, see Chapter 4, Installing the Device

Drivers.

4Install the RAID Controller Management Software.

For more information, see Chapter 5, Installing the Controller

Management Software.

5Install the clustering software to support Microsoft clusters.

For information on performing a cluster installation, see

Chapter 7, Installing Clusters.

Note: This version of the HP NetRAID-4M controller

software and firmware is incompatible with earlier versions.

If you have an existing controller in your system that has an

earlier version of the firmware and software installed and

are adding a new controller, you must upgrade the older

controller’s firmware, drivers, and Controller Management

Software to this release (and they must be upgraded as a

complete set). For information on how to perform the

upgrade, see Chapter 3, Performing an Upgrade Installation.

Controller Management Utilities

The HP NetRAID-4M supports the following management utilities:

■Flexible Array Storage Tool (FAST)—FAST software enables

you to manage data, files, and storage devices in an easy-to-

use graphical interface with wizard support. In addition, you

can integrate the FAST software with higher-level

management platforms to unify systems and network

management. FAST can create a container (logical drive)

consisting of partitions on different disks, where each partition

is less than the entire disk’s capacity. FAST can be used to
