Important Note
Using modern RAID Systems significantly increases data security and availability. Under no
circumstances does it relieve you from a careful and daily backup on tape or a similar backup
media. This is the only method to protect your valuable data against total loss (e.g.,
through fire or theft), accidental deletion, or any other destroying impacts.
Many Thanks to all my Friends
Monika & Wolfgang (the grandmasters)
AnnDee, Lois, Ken and Andreas (the Phoenix Crew)
Achim, Dieter, Norbert, Otto, Ralph, Wolfgang (WOS), Vitus (GG), (they are the real wizards)
Alfred (AB, "We need ultra2. I say we have it")
Andreas (AK, or "Kopf nur mit ö")
Michael (Mipf, "where is my CPU ?")
Jürgen (Jogo, "Hi, is Jurgen there ?")
Ruth (RA, "she had to proof-read that thing, ...)
Johannes (JS, "I want my ice with a red cap .., or Dr. Oops-Click-Click...")
Jürgen (JB, "diesbezüglich & hinsichtlich or probably")
Klaus (KLM, "..not an Airline..")
Markus (Malu, "Luuuuu....")
Uwe & Steffen (the two from the soldering station, 5 Paninis for Reinhardt)
All the fantastic "rest" of this incredible company.
It is not only a pleasure to work here, it is a passion.

In order to take full advantage of modern operating systems, high performance computer
systems are needed. When assessing the performance of a computer system, the aspects
speed and security of the mass-storage subsystem are gaining increasing importance. As a
result of the constantly growing acceptance of the RAID technology (Redundant Array of
Inexpensive Disks) in these computer systems, and the identification of the RAID controller
as the essential part of a disk subsystem, a strong demand for suitable RAID controllers has
emerged during the past few years.
Since 1990, ICP vortex has been intensively engaged in the research and development of
RAID products for the highest performance and security requirements. Due to our products’
outstanding performance, our expertise and continuity in development, ICP Controllers are
accepted and known as top leading-edge products all over the world. ICP Controller prod-
ucts within the GDT RP Series offer customers a wide variety of RAID controllers, suitable
for the most different platforms and applications. All ICP Controllers of the GDT RP Series
are pure-bred hardware solutions. All functionality required for the sometimes very complex
tasks is hardware-implemented on the controller. Thus, RAID is fully independent of the
computer system (the host) and the operating system.
Thanks to the wide operating system support and easy-to-use installation and maintenance
utilities, setting up and using high performance and fault-tolerant mass-storage subsystems
for almost every purpose is child’s play.
We would like to thank you for purchasing an ICP Controller of the GDT RP Series.

In order to meet the various customer and system requirements, ICP vortex offers the GDT
RP Series which includes different RAID Disk Array Controllers for PC-based PCI computer
systems. The main differences between the various controller models lie in the number of
Ultra SCSI channels available (1, 2, 3, or 5), the SCSI bus width (8 Bit: Narrow; 16 Bit: Wide)
and the kind of firmware installed (RAID 0, 1, or RAID 0, 1, 4, 5 and 10).

Hardware RAID Controllers with RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 4, RAID 5 and RAID 10 Array Drives
at controller level, completely independent of the computer system and the operating
system. Several Array Drives can be operated simultaneously.
Hot Plug and Auto-Hot Plug (with subsystems, which have Intelligent Fault Bus or
SAF-TE support, i.e., pull out and push in disk drives shuttles without any user interac-
tion).

&KDSWHU$*'78VHUV0DQXDO
"Private" (i.e, for one Array Drive) or "Pool" (i.e., for several Array Drives) Hot Fix Drives.
Online Capacity Expansion. Add one or several new disk drives to an existing Array Drive
to expand its capacity. During the Expansion all data are redundant.
Online RAID Level Migration. Online change of an Array Drive's RAID Level, e.g., from
RAID 0 to RAID 5.
Online Capacity Expansion and RAID Level migration can be performed simultaneously.
Configuration Utility (GDTSETUP) in ROM. Express Setup option to easily setup Array
Drives. Press "CTRL-G" to load GDTSETUP, long before the operating system is booted.
Advanced Multi-Processor RISC Technology.
On-Board 32-Bit RISC CPU. Completely offloads the host CPU.
1, or 2 Narrow & Ultra, or 1, 2, 3 or 5 Wide & Ultra SCSI channels with third generation 32
SCSI RISC processors and an active, software-switchable termination. With the Wide &
Ultra controllers the Low-Byte and High-Byte termination can be switched separately.
For the 1, 2 and 3 channel Wide & Ultra models, the controllers provide both of the fol-
lowing internal connectors:
- a standard 50-pin header for 8 Bit SCSI cables and
- a standard 68-pin receptacle for 16 Bit SCSI cables.
This saves money because no expensive adapters are required.
Can control up to 35 SCSI devices (7 per channel). Hard disks, Removable hard disks, CD-
ROMs, MODs, DAT-drives, streamers, etc.
Full SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 protocol support.
Synchronous data transfer rate per SCSI channel of up to 40MB/sec.
Cache RAM: 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, or 64MB.
One standard 72 PIN, 32 Bit or 36 Bit PS/2 SIMM.
FPM (Fast Page Mode) or EDO (Extended Data Out) Dynamic-RAM technology.
With EDO SIMMs increased performance.
Automatic Cache RAM detection.
Optional ECC SIMM (16MB).
Intelligent multi-level cache-algorithm with adaptive delayed write and read ahead func-
tions. This ensures an optimized cache for various load profiles and system require-
ments.
Supports an Intelligent Fault Bus (IFB) and the SAF-TE (SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant En-
closures) standard.
On-Board PCI 2.x compatible BIOS (Plug & Play).
BIOS, Firmware and GDTSETUP in Flash-RAM. Easy update through floppy disk or BBS-
download.
Full Scatter and Gather support.

GDTMON. Monitor program for the diagnosis (also remote) of ICP Controllers & Array
Drives. The tool allows you to optimize existing configurations.
Drivers for MS-DOS, Novell NetWare, SCO UNIX V/386, Interactive UNIX, UnixWare, Li-
nux, Windows NT, Windows 95 and OS/2. ASPI-Managers for DOS, Windows and Novell
NetWare.
SNMP and MHS support for Novell NetWare. SNMP support for Windows NT.
I20 ready controller design.

This authorization will be granted only on the condition that the Software License Agree-
ment stated hereafter is observed.
By opening the disk packaging you expressly acknowledge the Software License
Agreement of ICP vortex.
1. You are authorised to use the software contained on the enclosed disks, CD-ROMs
and EPROMs/Flash-RAMs on a single computer system only. The restriction to this
one computer system also applies if the disk packaging contains a double set of soft-
ware, for example one set of 3.5" floppy disks and a CD-ROM. It is further valid if the
package contains several versions of software adapted to different operating systems.
A multi-utilization of the software is only permitted when a multi-user license has
been purchased. The number of further computer systems authorized for usage under
a multi-user license is evident from and limited by that license.

only. Furthermore, it is permitted to copy the software onto the hard disk of one sin-
gle computer. It is not permitted to duplicate the contents of the EPROMs and/or
Flash-RAMs on the ICP Controller.
