Multitasking
When you attach more than one disk drive to the SCSI adapter
card, you can increase the performance of your system by
assigning each drive to its own channel. This allows for
multitasking on the SCSI interface.
Note
NetWare 286 can perform only one I/O operation per channel at one
time.
The ASPI NetWare Manager allows you to configure multiple
channels per SCSI adapter by mapping a channel to a drive rather
than to the SCSI adapter.
When preparing your SCSI adapter card and hard disk drives for
multitasking, connect each hard disk drive to the same SCSI cable
and to the same SCSI adapter card.
The NetWare procedure for assigning multiple channels to a SCSI
adapter card is similar to the standard installation. Follow these
steps:
1. Follow the standard installation procedure described in your
NetWare installation manual.
2. Load the NetWare SCSI driver once for each hard disk drive to
map those drives to a channel. The program displays the
Selected Disk Drivers list and this menu:
