Installing SCO OpenServer v5.07 on an HP ML350 G5 server
Hi there
We are trying to install SCO OpenServer v5.07 on an HP ML350 G5 server. I have downloaded the drivers from HP's website, but are getting nowhere. (I feel that I am going round in circles - every time I google for the drivers, I end up here.) What happens is we create the driver disks successfully, and when sco boots, we type in the following bootstring : Code:
defbootstr link=ciss Code:
defbootstr link=ciss hd=Sdsk Sdsk=ciss(0,0,0,0) Srom=wd(0,0,0) The install program comes up, asks you for the keyboard layout, and the license number and license code. Then it terminates with the message that there is no root device. Also, we have created the array with the HP array configuration utility, so there is a logical drive. The driver we downloaded from HP's website is : HP ProLiant ML350 G5 Server series- Download drivers and software - HP Business Support Center Your help and assistance will be appreciated. Kind regards Libs |

Remove the Sdsk=ciss(0,0,0,0) from the bootstring.
You are forcing the install program to only look for that specific scsi address. On many RAID host adapters, bus 1 is used, not bus 0. |

the new ML 350 G5 servers come with SAS hard disk
this means new technology, wich is serial adapter scsi, the new generation of scsi, which mean that has to be bot with a new string containing the new driver, in this case "hpsas", the complete string on boot as follows: defbootstr link=hpsas hd=Sdsk Sdsk=hpsas(0,0,0,0) Srom=wd(0,0,0) hope it helps you |
