AAA-UDMA Installation and Hardware Guide
This
Installation and Hardware Guide
explains how to install the
AAA-UDMA, connect UDMA drives to it, run the
ARRAYCONFIG
™
UDMA
Utility to create the first array for a boot-
able array configuration, and then install the software device driver
for your operating system.
Use the Adaptec CI/O Management Software
™
, which is included
with the AAA-UDMA, to create additional arrays (CI/O
™
is
required for array management in order to provide the proper level
of fault tolerance and event notification). Refer to the
