ASA-7211C/F Installation Guide

Installation Overview

The following steps provide an overview of the process of

installing and configuring the ASA-7211 adapter:

Note: If you already have an iSCSI adapter installed in the

computer and you wish to update the driver, proceed directly

to Appendix A.

1 Verify that the computer meets the requirements described in

System Requirements on page 1-5.

2 Gain familiarity with the contents of the Adaptec iSCSI

installation CD. Read the Readme files for installation and

compatibilities issues.

3 Install the Adaptec iSCSI adapter as described in Chapter 2.

4 Connect Ethernet cables with the appropriate connector type

(either copper or fiber) between the adapter, switches (if any),

and targets.

Note: You need a copper (CAT 5 or CAT 6), or fiber,

Ethernet cable. The cable is not included in the kit.

5 Installing the driver for nonbootable adapters—If your

operating system is already installed and you are adding the

iSCSI adapter for additional storage capabilities, install the

appropriate driver for the operating system as described in

Chapter 3.

Creating an iSCSI bootable system—If you are building a new

system and wish to boot from an iSCSI target, skip Chapter 3

and proceed to Chapter 4.

6 Run the configuration management utility to configure the

network, as described in Chapter 5, Configuring the iSCSI System.
