If you are using a Smart Array Controller, you probably need to add a
third-party driver during the NT setup disk startup sequence. When the
setup CD spins up and starts to load, you need to hit F6. The program will
display a screen asking about third-party drivers for storage devices. You
will need to add the cpqarray.sys or cpqarray2.sys. I think it's the later.
Your best bet, if you just bought these servers, is to call 1-800-OK COMPAQ
and ask them to make sure.
But either way, this makes the array controller usable by the setup program.

Does anyone here use Compaq Servers?
I recently purchased a Compaq ML370 and I'm having a devil of a time
trying
to setup the raid configuration and I'm hoping someone here has. I have
4
9GB drives on scsi device ids 0 thru 3. The drives spin up and are
recognized by the system, however when I go to install the OS (Win2k) it
doesnt see the drives. I suspect its because the raid array isnt setup
properly.
Any Help Appreciated,
Duane
