Adding a CD-ROM Drive
5. Invoke the IO configurator in SYSGEN to modify the configuration:
:SYSGEN
sysgen>IO
Add the device:
io>AD LDEV=
ldev
PATH=
path
ID=
prod#
where:
ldev
logical device number of the CD-ROM drive.
path
hardware path to the CD-ROM drive (e.g., 36.1.3 or 52.4).
prod#
identification number of the CD-ROM drive (i.e., for HP-IB: HPC1707A;
for HP SCSI: HPA1999A; for Toshiba 3401 SCSI: CD-ROM-XM-3401TA
or CD-ROM-XM-4101TA).
SCSI Example:
:SYSGEN
sysgen> IO
(
first verify that path 52 has SCSI-DAM as PMGR
)
io> LPATH 52 ***SAMPLE DATA***
(
Add the path for the CD-ROM with a pseudo manager as
the ID
)
io> APATH PATH=52.3 ID=PSEUDO PMGR=TRANSPARENT_MGR
(
If you have a second CD-ROM to configure, then do
the same for the other path:
)
io> APATH PATH=52.4 ID=PSEUDO PMGR=TRANSPARENT_MGR
(
then add the devices; `.0' is appended to path
identifier
)
io> ADEVICE LDEV=11 PATH=52.3.0 CLASS=DISC ID=HPA1999A
LMGR=LOGICAL_DEVICE_MANAGER PMGR=SCSI_DISC_DM
(
then do the same for LDEV 12
)
io> ADEVICE LDEV=12 PATH=52.4.0 CLASS=DISC ID=HPA1999A
LMGR=LOGICAL_DEVICE_MANAGER PMGR=SCSI_DISC_DM
6. Hold the changes you just made, exit the IO configurator, keep the new configuration,
and exit SYSGEN:
io> HOLD
io> EXIT
sysgen> KEEP CONFIG
(Keep the changes to the current config group.
This assumes the group name is CONFIG.SYS.)
sysgen> EXIT
7. Shut down the computer system:
CTRL A
=SHUTDOWN
After you see the message SHUT 6, power off the computer.
8. Connect the CD-ROM drive to the card using the path you configured.
9. Set the voltage selector switch, if necessary, on the back of the CD-ROM drive. It should
