Chaparral G5312/G7313 ユーザーズマニュアル

Introduction

This User’s Guide explains how to install and use the Chaparral G- and K-Series 
External RAID Controllers, which are designed to be installed in a RAID enclosure 
and used with a host system to provide a powerful disk subsystem.

The G5312 and K5312 RAID controllers are fault-tolerant SCSI-to-SCSI RAID 
controllers that bridge the SCSI interface between the host system and the SCSI hard 
drive peripherals. They support low voltage differential (LVD) Ultra2 or single-ended 
Ultra SCSI buses. The G5312 and K5312 have one Ultra2 SCSI host channel and two 
Ultra2 SCSI disk channels. Each disk channel is a separate SCSI bus.

The G7313 and K7313 offer all of the features of the G5312 and K5312 except that 
they support Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity, single loop. They each have one FC 
host and three Ultra2 SCSI disk channels.

Administrative software is embedded in firmware; thus, the G- and K-Series requires 
no specific software drivers for the host operating system.

This User’s Guide describes how to install and configure your Chaparral RAID 
controller. It assumes that you are familiar with the basic functions of your computer 
system. It also assumes that you are familiar with SCSI and Fibre Channel 
configurations and basic network administration terminology.
