DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The advansys drivers support most  AdvanSys  PCI  SCSI  host
adapters, as
     shown in this table:

           adv              adw
           ABP-920          ABP-940UW
           ABP-930 (1)      ABP-940UWD
           ABP-930U         ABP-970UW
           ABP-930UA        ASB-3940UW-00
           ABP-940          ASB-3940U2W-00
           ABP-940U         ASB-3950U160
           ABP-940UA
           ABP-950
           ABP-960 (2)
           ABP-960U (2)
           ABP-970
           ABP-970U
           ABP-980
           ABP-980U

     1.    This  board has been sold by SIIG as the Fast SCSI Pro
PCI.
     2.   This board has been sold by Iomega as  a  Jaz  Jet  PCI
adapter.

     The adw driver will log some host adapter errors with general messages
     such as

           adw0:0:0: host adapter error 0x12. See adw(4).
           adw0:0:0: host adapter error 0x12, resetting bus.  See
adw(4).

     Some  further  information on the meaning of such errors can
be obtained
     from the following table derived from the source  code  provided by ConnectCom.
