Reconfiguring the server and updating server records
When you start your server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or an external SCSI device, you might see a message telling you that the
configuration has changed.
Device drivers
Some options have device drivers that you need to install. Refer to the
documentation that comes with your option for information about installing any
required device drivers.
DIMMs
If you replaced a defective DIMM, you must manually enable the DIMM slot in
the Configuration/Setup Utility program. In this case, the system does not
automatically access the Configuration/Setup Utility program to enable the
DIMM slot. See “Memory settings” on page 30 for additional information.
Processors
Your xSeries 370 server comes with at least one processor installed on the
standard processor daughterboard. If you have installed one or more additional
processors, your server can now operate as an SMP server. Therefore, you
might need to upgrade your operating system. Refer to your operating-system
documentation for additional information.
If you replaced a defective processor, you must manually enable the processor
slot in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. In this case, the system does
not automatically access the Configuration/Setup Utility program to enable the
processor slot. See “Processor settings” on page 30 for additional information.
Reconfiguring the server
Run the Configuration/Setup Utility program to save the new configuration
information. See Chapter 3, “Configuring your server” on page 19.
Updating server records
Record your updated device and configuration information and keep it in a safe
place.
