SCSI Hard Drives
When installing SCSI hard drives to your Compaq ProLiant DL320 server,
each SCSI hard drive must have a unique ID. The system begins searching the
drive with the lowest numbered ID for a bootable partition. The jumpers on a
factory-installed hard drive are set to ID 0. For illustration purposes in this
document, we assume the devices are numbered ID 0 and ID 1, with ID 0
containing the desired boot partition. Use only supported hard drives in the
ProLiant DL320 server. For a listing of supported drives, please refer to the
ProLiant DL320 Quickspecs on www.compaq.com.
CAUTION: Installing unsupported hard drives may damage your system by
consuming power and generating heat in excess of the server’s operating
tolerance. This condition may result in a loss of system and/or data integrity.
NOTE: Refer to the documentation shipped with your hard drive to determine how to set
the jumpers on your SCSI hard drives.
