Compaq System Configuration Utility
The Compaq System Configuration Utility performs a wide range of
configuration activities including the following:
■
configures PCI boards automatically
■
provides switch and jumper settings
■
resolves resource conflicts in areas such as memory, port addresses, and
interrupts (IRQs)
■
manages the installation of memory, processor upgrades, and mass
storage devices such as hard drives, tape drives, and diskette drives
■
sets and stores power-on features like date and time
■
stores configuration information in nonvolatile memory
■
assists in the installation of the operating system
■
assists in running diagnostic tools such as TEST and INSPECT Utilities
The first time the server is configured, the SmartStart program automatically
creates a system partition and installs the System Configuration Utility and
other Compaq utilities in that partition. For information concerning this
utility, refer to the SmartStart documentation and the Systems Reference
Library CD included in the shipping box.
