How to make DS2100 work with D-class or R-class?
I have a HP 9000/820/D280 system which has a SE SCSI card. We bought a DS 2100 (part number A5675A) recently and sent this to Atlanta where the system was located. The HP UX sysadmin reported that the "array was not picked up by the system at all". I would like to know
1) if this D-class server will ever work with a DS2100.?
2) If not, do I need to change my server or buy a specific card to make it work?.
3) Has anyone got a DS2100 to work with the model that we have.?
Will appreciate any pointers. Thx for your time.

Re: How to make DS2100 work with D-class or R-class?
"The HP Surestore Disk System 2100 is not operating system specific. It is designed to work with any Ultra3 SCSI LVD equipped workstation or server and is backward compatible to slower SCSI LVD interfaces. Please be aware that when the DS2100 is configured for single-ended (SCSI/SE) operation, only one unit with up to four drives may be connected to the SCSI interface."
It would appear that operation with your SE-SCSI bus is possible although you would be much better off with an HVD SCSI controller in your D or R box in turn connected to an HVD/LVD SCSI bus translator. You would be better off still by choosing something other than a D or R-box since your only choices with these do not include LVD SCSI.
Plan C. Forget about the DS2100 and find yourself a Jamaica enclosure (A3312). These JBOD's will accept eith SE or HVD SCSI Disk modules and are available on the used-equipment market.

If I remember correct the D and R class servers has a Narrow SE connector. It should be possible to connect a LVD device to that bus (if you can find a 50-68 pin adapter cable) but you are limited to the performance of the NSE bus. It is NOT possible to connect a LVD devise to the HVD bus (unless you use a LVD-HVD bridge).

Hi,
Seems as HP has a such device (but rather expensive). I dont know if it is still avialable:
