MegaRAID 320-0X Hardware Installation

Set target identifiers (TIDs) on the SCSI devices. Each device in a
channel must have a unique TID. Provide unique TIDs for non-disk
devices (CD-ROM or tapes), regardless of the channel they are
connected to. The MegaRAID 320-0X storage adapter automatically
occupies TID 7, which is the highest priority. The arbitration priority
for a SCSI device depends on its TID
Step 6.
Power On Host System
Replace the computer cover, and reconnect the AC power cords. Turn
power on to the host computer. Ensure that the SCSI devices are
powered up at the same time as, or before, the host computer. If the
computer is powered up before a SCSI device, the device might not
be recognized.
During boot, a BIOS message appears. The firmware takes several
seconds to initialize. During this time, the storage adapter scans the
SCSI channel(s).
The MegaRAID 320 BIOS Configuration Utility (Ctrl-M) prompt times out after
several seconds. The second portion of the BIOS message displays the
MegaRAID 320-0X storage adapter number, firmware version, and cache
SDRAM size. The numbering of the controllers follows the PCI slot scanning
order used by the host motherboard.
To run the MegaRAID Configuration Utility or the WebBIOS utility at this
point, press the appropriate keys when this message appears:
Press <CTRL><M> to run MegaRAID Configuration Utility, or
Press <CTRL><H> for WebBIOS
