Netfinity 7000 - MetaStor enclosures limitations

Applicable to: World-Wide

The MetaStor enclosure will work under NetWare and OS/2 Warp Server with the following limitations:

1. Only one RAID controller in the MetaStor enclosure.
2. Only one SYM8751D HBA in the Netfinity 7000 system.

**** Next steps apply to Netware*****

3. The ASPI8XX.SYS driver has to be loaded in DOS prior loading Netware.
4. The SDMSNET4.DSK driver has to be used (instead of the *.HAM driver) for Netware.

SymBIOS does not support two RAID controllers under NetWare or OS/2 Warp Server, and suggest for Netware using the DOS driver and the SDMSNET4.DSK driver together.
