Before a part can be replaced in an ASP system, that is still in warranty ASP support must verify that the part is needed, then ASP support will give you an RA# and a part number, give these numbers to logistics for tracking purposes. ASP support: 619/259-9322 ASP support will notify you if the system is no longer under warranty, in this case use normal parts handling procedures.

Before you start: - Make sure you have at least 15 MB of disk space available to do the upgrade. - You will need the SCO UNIX Registration number and Activation Key to install this update. - Do a complete back in case there are any problems. - Make a copy of /etc/inittab (cp /etc/inittab /etc/inittab.org) - You may want to copy any modified crontabs if an automatic backup was incorporated into them. 1. shutdown to single user mode (system maintenance mode) 2.

During the procedure you will be asked if you would like to save the files to tape to free space. You can copy the files to tape or leave them on disk to make sure the system will run on this level.

Terminal Concentrators (128 port controller) The terminal concentrators used on the 128 port controller (RPX 7000 & SCO) have built in diagnostics. These diagnostics can be manually accessed by : Connecting a terminal (vt100 emulation) to port 1 or 16 on the "target" concentrator. Power the concentrator OFF and then ON. When the display shows "P1" enter a "v" at the keyboard and a test menu will be displayed. 2. Digiboard Port Authority The Digiboard Port Authority, "DPA", is a useful utility for the 128 port controller and its concentrators (only for 128 port controller). There is a version of DPA for RPX 7000 and a version for SCO, there are no other versions. DPA will show which concentrators are active and which are "down". The user can select a specific port and see what the interface is doing (Rx data, Tx data, flow control) in the same manner as the LED display. Additionally the DPA will show link speed and characteristics (buad rate, bits, parity) These diagnostics are considered to be self explanatory and no manuals are available. In order to received the DPA utility you must contact MAI customer care center and order MAI part number W400947-003. You will received media that contains two files : dpa.sco (for SCO) and dpa.aix (for the RPX).

DETAILS : THE GPX 7190 (PENTIUM SYSTEM) COMES WITH THE PCI SCSI CONTROLLER SET FOR IRQ 9. THIS IS THE ONLY INTERRUPT WHICH WILL WORK FOR THIS CONTROLLER AND AS A RESULT IT BECOMES NECESSARY TO USE ANOTHER INTER- RUPT FOR THE ETHERNET CONTROLLER. THE REMAINING INTERRUPTS WHICH ARE USABLE FOR THE D-LINK ETHERNET CONTROLLER ARE: IRQ 3, TYPICALLY USED FOR COM2 OR MODEM IRQ 4, TYPICALLY USED FOR COM1 (TERMINAL, SERIAL PRINTER, UPS) IRQ 5, TYPICALLY USED FOR LPT2 (SECOND PARALLEL PRINTER) IT IS ASSUMED THAT IRQ 3 AND IRQ 4 MUST BE LEFT FOR COM PORT USAGE. THIS LEAVES THE THREE (3) ALTERNATIVES LISTED BELOW : 1. IN MOST CASES A SECOND PARALLEL PRINTER IS NOT PRESENT SO IRQ 5 MAY BE USED FOR THE D-LINK CONTROLLER. SELECT IRQ 5 AND MAKE SURE THE CONTROLLED IS JUMPERED FOR IRQ 5 DURING THE INSTALLATION. THE DRAWBACK TO THIS ALTERNATIVE IS THAT IT PRECLUDES FUTURE USE OF THIS INTERRUPT IN THE EVENT THAT A SECOND PARALLEL PRINTER IS DESIRED (I.E. USING THE MAI MFC CARD). 2. USE THE ACCTON ETHERNET CARD (P.N. 400817-006) AND INSTALL THE ACCTON DRIVER (400817-101). THE ACCTON DRIVER ALLOWS FOR CONFIGURING THE BOARD FOR INTERRUPTS 10,11 OR 15. SINCE THERE IS . NO ADAPTEC OR BUSTEK CARD INSTALLED, IRQ 11 CAN BE USED FOR THE ACCTON CARD. NOTE: IF AN ADAPTEC CARD IS INSTALLED TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS OR FORMAT. A DISK (WHICH CAN NOT BE DONE USING THE PCI CONTROLLER), THE ETHERNET CARD MUST BE REMOVED. NOTE: YOU MUST ENSURE THAT IN THE EVENT OF A PCBA FAILURE, THE ACCTON CARD IS REPLACED WITH ANOTHER ACCTON CARD AND NOT A D-LINK. 3. REPLACE THE PCI CONTROLLER WITH AN ISA BUS OR EISA BUS CONTROLLER CONFIGURED FOR INTERRUPT 11. THE DRAWBACK TO THIS CONFIGURATION IS ADDED COST BUT ON THE PLUS SIDE IS THE ABILITY TO RUN DEMON AND DIVE WITH THIS CONFIGURATION.

MAI diagnostics will not run on the GPx 7190 because they do not have the PCI driver built-in. This is a problem because disk drives cannot be formatted with the PCI controller installed.

These two instances are (1) Installing/reinstalling SCO and (2) changing from one type of PCI host adapter to another (i.e. changing from an NCR board to an Adaptec). INSTALLATION OF DRIVER WHEN INSTALLING/REINSTALLING SCO ------------------------------------------------------- (1) Begin the SCO install in the usual manner by booting the system with the N1 diskette. At the prompt Boot: Type link (2) The system will ask for the name of the package to be linked. Enter the name of the driver :(bscam for NCR) (alad for Adaptek 2740) (buslogic for Buslogic BT-946c) You will be prompted when to insert the diskette containing the driver. Follow the standard install procedure for SCO. You will be prompted one more time to insert the driver diskette during the install process (the prompt will actually ask for the driver by name). INSTALLING A DIFFERENT DRIVER ON A RUNNING SCO SYSTEM ----------------------------------------------------- If the PCI controller is changed from one manufacturer to another the driver . must be changed also. Before attempting to install or change the PCI driver, save a copy of the currently running kernal (i.e. cp /unix /unix.orig). (1) Insert the appropriate driver diskette in the floppy drive and type: installpkg (2) installpkg will display the names of the package(s) on the diskette, enter the appropriate names as follows: NCR PCI, installpkg displays bscam and cam3 select bscam Adaptek 2740 PCI, installpkg displays alad select alad Buslogic BT-946c PCI installpkg displays buslogic select buslogic allow about 1 minute for installpkg to complete (3) use 'vi' to edit the following file CPU-BASIC FOUR-GPx 4160/5160/5190/7190--------------FIB018 Pg001 /etc/conf/cf.d/mscsi Under the heading *ha replace the current device name with the appropriate device name as in the following example (which illustrates the case for the NCR driver): *ha attach number ID lun * bhba Stp 0 2 0 bhba Sdsk 0 0 0 bhba Sdsk 0 1 0 NCR, device name is bhba Adaptec 2740 device name is alad Buslogic BT-946c device name is btk (4) Relink the kernal, enter: /etc/conf/cf.d/link_unix (5) After the new kernal is built, shutdown and replace the existing PCI host adapter with the new one. NOTE: It will always be possible to boot the "old" PCI controller by booting unix.orig at the boot prompt.
