Using ORCA
Part of the startup sequence of a server is the Power-On Self-Test (POST). If the
array controller in the server supports ORCA, POST temporarily halts and an ORCA
prompt message is displayed for about five seconds. (If ORCA is not supported, the
prompt message is not displayed and the system continues with the startup sequence.)
1.
Power up the server and let the system startup sequence begin.
2.
While the prompt message is on the screen, press the
F8
key to start ORCA.
