SCSI card problem

[Marcelo Celleri]

I entered to the Multi Initiator Configuration and made some changes, in the SCSI card that I cannot remember, because I had a lot of problems with the reinstall of Linux 8.0, before those changes I had one drive but now I have seven ...I don't know how to restore the initial values in the SCSI card now...it's a Compaq Ultra 3 Dual Channel... cold you please help me ?? and if you can tell me how to restore the server to it's defaults factory values it would be better

Boot the SmartStart CD. It contains the System Erase Utility which will reset your server to factory default settings (including erase all connected drives).

7 drives... I've seen that happen when the SCSI address of controller and drive are the same.

how can I make disappear all the hard drives from 1 to 7 ?? I had only one hard drive installed...I don't understand..

[Martin Breidenbach]

Check the controller settings. Somewhere there the SCSI ID of the controller can be changed. It should be 7. I believe it is set to the same SCSI address as the hard drive.

(hope this time the message gets properly posted and not 4 times :)
