- SCSI Driver
The file name for the SCSI driver is OS2SCSI.DMD. The IDC entry
point for the SCSI driver can be obtained from the AttachDD DevHlp
function by using the name SCSI-02$ as the device driver name parameter.
- IBM Device-Class Drivers
Current device driver names used by IBM are:
OPTICAL.SYS
Read/Write optical device driver
Note:
Naming conflicts are possible, so try to choose unique names for your
device-class drivers. In a SCSI environment, different vendor devices for
the same SCSI device class can be present in one system.
Message
Files
The IBM-reserved message file name for device drivers that have been developed
internally is DEV002.MSG. Independent vendors must not use DEV002.MSG
for their message files, because if they do, one of those message files
could be destroyed during the user installation process. It is suggested
that vendors choose a unique message file name by embedding part of their
logo or company name in the file name; that would eliminate the possibility
of having different vendor devices with the same message file name installed
in the same system.
