Scalar DLC Reference Guide 217
SCSI Target Port Tool
To launch the tool, right-click on Scalar DLC status icon and select Tools > SCSI Target Port Tool.
The Scalar DLC SCSI Target Port Tool is designed for operating the system SCSI Target ports. If the SCSI
port is currently in Target mode and the customer wants to change it to Initiator, the port must be disabled
as Target before enabling it as Initiator. This operation is executed via the SCSI Target Port Tool.
Immediately after the Scalar DLC software and the Target drivers are installed, the SCSI Target ports can
be disabled. To make them operational, enable the ports via the SCSI Target Port tool.
After disabling the SCSI Target Port, launch the Device Manager and enable the SCSI port as an Initiator.
Restart the system afterwards. Enabling a SCSI port as a Target can be done via the SCSI Target Port tool
(a reboot may be required).
Figure 155 SCSI Target Port Tool
CAUTION
Enable only the ports that should operate in Target mode. An attempt to use
the Initiator port as a Target may cause a system crash (for example, if the
hard disk is connected to the adapter, its port must work in Initiator mode.
Note
Do not use two adapters of the same model in different operation modes (Initiator and
Target). Otherwise, it is possible to make a mistake and enable an Initiator as a Target.
