smart array 5302 configuration software
There's also pc driven software that will allow you to connect & configure. Most of the links i found were broken/expired.
I'd prefer the keyboard mapping as i'm already there....
thanks in advance

Re: smart array 5302 configuration software
What version of OpenVMS are you using? If it is V8.2 and later, you can use the OpenVMS tool MSA$UTIL to connect and configure the SA5302 controller.
Refer to the link below for documentation on MSA$UTIL.

Re: smart array 5302 configuration software
AlphaBIOS VT220
F1 Ctrl + A
F2 Ctrl + B
F3 Ctrl + C
F4 Ctrl + D
F5 Ctrl + E
F6 Ctrl + F
F7 Ctrl + P
F8 Ctrl + R
F9 Ctrl + T
F10 Ctrl + U
INSERT Ctrl + V
DEL Ctrl + W
BACKSPACE Ctrl + H
ESC Ctrl + [
DOWN ARROW Ctrl + I
TAB Ctrl + I
It's all somewhat slow and lacking partitioning (at least the latest firmware I found). You're better off using a more recent version of VMS with the MSA$UTIL utility.
Regards
John.

Re: smart array 5302 configuration software
Or as stated, use MSA$UTIL (which arrives in current OpenVMS or in recent SCSI firmware ECO kits) or download and install and use the appropriate associated tools I referenced over on those web pages. If you're running OpenVMS, MSA$UTIL is the usual choice.

Re: smart array 5302 configuration software
>>> set heap_expand 2mb
>>> init
>>> set bootbios pya0
>>> init
The card will then prompt you with "Press F8..." to configure it as the system goes through power on self testing.
Don't be tempted to set heap expand to more than 2mb as this could lead to a system not behaving (can't remember if it was a crash or a hang or just not booting).
Although the documentation claims that the bootbios setting is just so that you can boot from it, you need to have it set so that you can address the card to configure it.
PYA0 will refer to the first SmartArray card, PYB0 to the second and so on.
As someone else has commented, be aware that the SmartArray will give you RAID options for the drives but can't partition them - if you do RAID5 on three 36GB drives then that can only present a 72GB drive to VMS, it won't partition it. For partitioning of the resulting drive you need the SW-RAID package to do host-based RAID.
(Host based RAID partitions are presently limited to 0.5TB too btw)
