Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
optional device or external SAS or SCSI device, you might receive a message that
the configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts
automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. For more
information, see “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 60.
Some optional devices have device drivers that you must install. For information
about installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each device.
The server can operate as a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) server. You might
have to upgrade the operating system to support SMP. For more information, see
“Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD” on page 68 and the
operating-system documentation.
If the server has a RAID configuration that uses an optional RAID controller and
you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, see the documentation that comes
with the RAID controller for information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.
If the server has a RAID configuration that uses the integrated SAS controller with
RAID capabilities and you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, you might
have to reconfigure the disk arrays.
For information about configuring the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller, see
“Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller” on page 70.
