terminating the scsi bus 3-5 rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. 3.2 terminating the scsi bus some basic scsi principles must be applied to correctly con?ure the scsi bus on your system. most dif?ulties with the scsi bus can be traced to improper termination and cabling. to con?ure termination on each device on the scsi bus, follow these requirements: ? enable termination on devices at the ends of the bus ? disable termination on devices not at the end of the bus ? use lvd/se termination on the ultra2 scsi buses. ? use active termination for ultra wide scsi. the scsi bus must be terminated at both ends, and only at the ends. 3.2.1 automatic scsi termination all of the ITI8000 scsi adapters employ automatic termination. under normal circumstances, no operator action is required to correctly terminate the scsi bus if you observe the following rules: ? only terminate each scsi bus at the ends. if an ITI8000 adapter is at the end of the scsi bus, the termination is set automatically enabled, which means the term light turns on to indicate the module is terminating the bus. ? if the lvd/se bus on an ITI8000 adapter is located on a bus containing lvd devices, it is automatically set to lvd signal levels. the lvd light illuminates to indicate the bus is running in ultra2 scsi lvd (80 mbytes/s) mode. ? if the lvd/se bus on an ITI8000 adapter senses any single-ended (se only) devices on the bus, it is automatically set to se signal levels and run in ultra scsi (40 mbytes/s) mode. impor tant: if you place se devices on the lvd bus on a ITI8000 adapter, this forces the lvd bus to run in ultra scsi mode.
3-6 con?uring scsi devices rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. quick check : if the lvd led is on, the bus is capable of ultra2 scsi (80 mbytes/s) performance. if the led is off, the bus is capable of 40 mbytes/s performance. as a rule, se devices and lvd devices should not be mixed on a bus. if all se devices are kept on one se bus, the lvd bus will run at ultra2 scsi speeds, while the se devices will run at their maximum ultra scsi speeds. if a ? cable is used on the front external connector, placing the ITI8000 series adapter in the middle of the lvd scsi bus, you must install a jumper on hdr1 if the ? cable is on bus a and on hdr3 if the ? cable is on bus b. these jumpers are the invert termination headers. this forces the module to not terminate the bus. this situation could arise in a scsi cluster. note: lsi logic recommends that you do not use a ? cable out the front of the module. this causes a violation of the scsi speci?ation, which could degrade the bus performance or make it inoperable. if a ? cable is used on the rear external connector, placing the ITI8000 series adapter in the middle of the lvd scsi bus, you must install a jumper on hdr6 if the ? cable is on bus a and on hdr7 if the ? cable is on bus b. these jumpers are the invert termination headers. this forces the module to not terminate the bus. this situation could arise in a scsi cluster. if both the internal connector and the external connector of bus a are used on the rear transition module, then you must install a jumper on hdr6. if both the internal connector and the external connector of bus b are used on the rear transition module, then you must install a jumper on hdr7. note: lsi logic recommends that you do not use a ? cable out the rear of the module or use both the internal and external connector on the same bus on the rear transition module. this will cause a violation of the scsi speci?ation, which could degrade the bus performance or make it inoperable. if you want to have the module in the middle of the scsi bus, lsi logic recommends that you use the external connector (of the desired bus) on
setting scsi ids 3-7 rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. the front of the module and one of the connectors (for the same bus) on the rear transition module. this does not degrade the scsi bus performance. quick check : if the term led is on, the ITI8000 series adapter is terminating the bus. if you are using the ? con?uration as described above, the termination led must be set to off. lvd technology is not compatible with the older high voltage differential (hvd) scsi standard. if an hvd device is placed on the ultra2 scsi lvd bus, the ITI8000 series adapter will turn off the port. the system indicates this error by ?shing the lvd led status indicator. do not use hvd terminators on your lvd bus. quick check : if the lvd led is ?shing, an hvd device has been sensed on the lvd bus. as a result, this bus is automatically disabled. to correct this problem, remove the hvd device. 3.3 setting scsi ids each device and host adapter on the scsi bus must have a unique scsi id. lsi logic recommends that the host adapter be left at its default scsi id of 7. if you must change the host adapter id, use the obp setenv command to change the scsi-initiator-id from 7 to the desired value. you must change the scsi id of one or more of the adapters in a scsi clustered system because more than one ITI8000 adapter exists on the same scsi bus. on a 16-bit scsi bus, each device must have a unique scsi id from 0?5. all lsi logic compactpci adapters default to scsi id 7. all other devices on the bus should be given ids from 0? or 8?5. refer to the target devices documentation about setting the targets scsi id. note: not all operating systems currently support scsi ids above 7. refer to your speci? operating system for more details.
3-8 con?uring scsi devices rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. 3.4 connecting internal and external devices this section provides information about making internal and external scsi bus connections. 3.4.1 internal scsi device connections to connect internal scsi devices to the iti8241c-r rear i/o adapter, use a multiconductor 68-position ribbon cable for 16-bit devices. there is one 68-position connector for each of the two scsi buses. scsi bus a is wired to j7 and scsi bus b is wired to j8. all ultra2 scsi lvd/se connectors can run lvd scsi at 80 mbytes/s. to maximize the performance of the card, use all lvd capable devices. if you connect a non-lvd device to the lvd bus, the device runs in se mode. this reduces the maximum performance of the port to 40 mbytes/s. if the scsi bus is not in lvd mode (lvd led is off), the scsi bus length must be kept to the ultra2 scsi se length of 1.5 meters. note : if the lvd led is not illuminated, the lvd bus is not running in lvd mode. this is a quick check to indicate if a non-ultra2 scsi lvd device is on the lvd segment of the card. 3.4.1.1 attaching ultra2 scsi lvd devices you can use a differential internal cable (50-401030) to attach internal lvd disks to the iti8241c-r rear i/o module. the lvd cable must be plugged into one of the lvd/se connectors on the rear i/o adapter (j7 or j8). you must connect all internal lvd devices to this cable. to con?ure internal devices on the lvd/se bus, follow these steps: step 1. set the device to a unique scsi id (0? or 8?5). the host adapter default is scsi id 7. step 2. plug the unterminated end of the scsi cable into the lsi logic compactpci adapter, making sure pin 1 (usually marked on the cable with a red stripe), corresponds to pin 1 on the connector.
connecting internal and external devices 3-9 rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. step 3. plug one connector on the ribbon cable to each of the devices on the bus. step 4. plug a 4-pin power connector into the power connector of each scsi device. step 5. the end of the lvd differential cable has a built-in lvd terminator that terminates the end of the internal lvd bus segment. the adapter terminates the other end of the bus automatically. 3.4.1.2 attaching se devices you can use the lsi logic internal cable (50-401030) to attach internal se disks to the iti8241c-r rear i/o module. note that placing any non- lvd drives on a bus causes the entire bus to run in se mode, and reduces the maximum i/o throughput from 80 mbytes/s to 40 mbytes/s. if you must use se drives on your system, place them all on the same bus, if possible. to con?ure se internal devices on the iti8241c-r adapter, follow these steps: step 1. disable termination on all se devices, and use a cable (50- 401030) that is capable of se/lvd termination. this ensures the scsi bus is only terminated at the end and that a high quality terminator is being used. step 2. set the device to a unique scsi id (0? or 8?5). the host adapter default is scsi id 7. step 3. plug the end of the scsi cable into the j7 or j8 connector on the iti8241c-r adapter, making sure pin 1 (usually marked on the cable with a red stripe), corresponds to pin 1 on the connector. step 4. plug one connector on the ribbon cable to each of the devices on the se bus step 5. plug a 4-pin power connector into the power connector of each scsi device caution: if you are using j7 or j8, you must not also attach a cable to the corresponding external scsi bus on the rear i/o module. if you attempt to use j7 and disks on the ?

4-6 con?uring the network interface rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. after the openboot prom probes the adapters fcode prom, a local-mac-address property is created in the adapters device node. the propertys value corresponds to the ethernet number that can be used with the adapter. the device driver, or any other qfe adapter utility, can use this local-mac-address property for con?uring that ethernet interface. 4.4.5 con?cting with fast ethernet switches there are two fast ethernet (100base-t) switches that may present dif?ulties when working with the iti8241c-s fast ethernet pci adapter: ? bay networks model 28115/adv ? synoptics model 28115 if you use the adapter with these switches, you will encounter dif?ulties. please refer to the sun microsystems bug id 4071199 for more information. a patch is available from sun microsystems that ?es these dif?ulties. note: for information on how to get the latest patches and patch revisions visit the sunsolve site at http://sunsolve.sun.com. 4.4.6 increasing performance on enterprise servers if you deploy four iti8241c-s four port fast ethernet adapters in an enterprise server, you may experience slow performance and response times during peak periods of high network traf?. this poor performance is usually caused by applications that use data buffer and socket buffer sizes greater than 8 kbytes. improved performance can be achieved by adjusting the applications data buffer size to be less than or equal to 8 kbytes.
customizing the installation 4-7 rev. 1.0 copyright 2000?001 by lsi logic corporation. all rights reserved. 4.4.7 ip forwarding routing protocols when you install the iti8241c-s adapter, the solaris operating system automatically con?ures systems with more than one network interface to be an ip forwarding router. an application server that might be running a database or nfs ?e services is typically ?ultihomed? this means that it contains more than one network interface but does not run ip protocols or forward ip packets. if ip forwarding and routing protocols on multihomed application servers is not disabled, the servers may experience poor performance. for more information, refer to the tcp/ip and data communications administration guide shipped with the solaris documentation.
