Array Diagnostics
Utility (ADU)
A Windows-based tool designed to run
on all Compaq systems that support
Compaq array controllers. Two main
functions of ADU are to collect all
possible information about the array
controllers in the system, and generate
a list of detected problems.
This tool is available for all Compaq
servers covered by this guide.
See the Array Diagnostics Utility (ADU)
section later in this chapter.
Drive Array
Advanced
Diagnostics (DAAD)
The predecessor to ADU, DAAD is a
DOS-based tool for Compaq servers
with Smart Array Controllers. DAAD
collects information about the array
controllers in the system and offers a
list of detected problems.
For a list of Compaq servers still
supported by this tool, visit the Compaq
website at http://www.compaq.com.

A log of system events, such as system
failures or non-fatal error conditions.
You can view events in the Integrated

■
Provide switch and jumper settings
■
Manage installation of memory,
processor upgrades, and mass
storage devices such as hard drives,
tape drives, and diskette drives
■
Store configuration information in
nonvolatile memory
■
Assist in installation of an operating
system

such as TEST and INSPECT
If the server has bootable CD-ROM drive,
run Compaq System Configuration Utility
directly from Support Software CD
supplied with SMART Controller Option
Kit, or SmartStart and Support Software
CD supplied with server. Use the CD
supplied for latest version supporting
SMART Controller.
If the sever does not have a bootable
CD-ROM drive, create diskettes with
latest version of the System

Software CD.
