Greater than 16MB of RAM in FT//ex & EPx
running NetWare 3.1x or 4.0x
NetWare is able to automatically recognise greater than 16Mb of RAM in
FT//ex and EPx, however the machine needs to be correctly configured for NetWare to do so.
To enable this facility the machine needs to be configured in the
Advance Configuration option on the EISA setup disk by following the instructions below.
Once the configuration program has loaded go to the section EISA SYSTEM.
Listed in this section will be a list of available memory regions.
| i.e. |
16-64 |
Ctrl -R add Memory |
|
64-128 |
Ctrl -R add Memory |
|
128-192 |
Ctrl -R add Memory |
These regions show memory above 16Mb in 64Mb blocks.
To configure extra memory go to the correct section (Amount of memory
above 16) and type “Ctrl R”. This will bring up a separate menu with a box
labelled SIZE. In this box, type in the amount of memory you are adding.
If your extra memory spans multiple memory regions, enter a value in all
the appropriate memory sections.
| i.e. |
Adding an extra 32Mb |
|
Type “Ctrl R” at the 16-64 add memory section |
|
Type “32M” at the size sub menu |
|
| Adding an extra 80Mb |
|
Type “Ctrl R” at the 16-64 add memory section |
|
Type “64M” at the size sub menu |
|
Type “Ctrl R” at the 64-128 add memory section |
|
Type “16M” at the size sub menu |
After the above, save the configuration and Reboot the machine. NetWare
will then auto register the memory correctly.
This IPB supersedes IPB 2173 issued on 31 January 1994.
