Introduction This Digi software package includes device drivers for Digi EPC/X PCI, C/X PCI, Xem PCI, Xr920 PCI and Xr PCI product families. This software package has been tested under SCO OpenServer 6, and SCO OpenServer 6 with Maintenance Pack 1. This package also contains Digi's MenuPort Interface (MPI), Port Configuration Utility (PCU) and Digi Port Authority (DPA). 2.

Enhancements Initial Release 4. Bug Fixes Initial Release 5. Known Limitations During package removal on OpenServer 6 Maintenance Pack 1, you may receive a warning similar to the following: UX:pkgremove: WARNING: e-mail notification may have failed The warning message is harmless and can be ignored. If multiple Xr(PCI) or Xr920(PCI) cards are being configured, and the cards support different numbers of ports, make sure the card placement on the PCI bus match the order in which they are configured in MPI. If Digi loadable drivers are removed but not reinstalled the user is advised to relink the kernel prior to rebooting the UNIX system. The time to perform various stages in the MPI install and change process can vary widely depending on when the idbuild for a driver is done. Since the idbuild for a driver cannot be done while the driver is loaded, MPI will do the build at one of three different times: - Driver not loaded - build is done during configuration - Driver was changed while it was loaded and is now being reloaded - build is done during load - Driver was changed while it was loaded and the system is now being rebooted - the build is done during the load that occurs after the boot MPI must be run after pkgadd to install new products. Before the MPI package can be removed from the system, the remove installed products option must be invoked through MPI to remove all configured Digi drivers. Executing pkginfo -l on the MPI package will display a message of partially installed pathnames. This message can be ignored. The ditty printer option does not guarantee complete writes of data to slow printer devices unless the tcdrain mechanism is used. For maximum performance of throughput, all of the concentrators should be evenly divided between the 2 lines. 6. Manual Errata None 7. History Initial Release.
