Configuration Conflicts
Resolving Hardware Configuration Conflicts
Use the following information to help resolve hardware
configuration conflicts:
1. Run the Configuration/Setup utility program to view and
change the resources that are used by the system board
functions. Record the current settings before making any
changes. (See “Starting the Configuration/Setup Utility
Program” on page 151 for instructions.)
2. Determine which adapter or device is causing the error.
3. Change configuration resource allocations. Use the built-in
Configuration/Setup utility program to view or change system
board resource allocations.
4. Change adapter jumpers or switches. Jumpers and switches
define the system resources that a device uses. If the settings
are incorrect or set to use a resource that cannot be shared, a
conflict occurs and the device will remain deactivated by the
configuration program.
5. Change system board jumpers or switches. See “Preparing to
Install Options” on page 181, to remove the cover. Then refer
to the system-board diagram inside your server.
6. Remove the device or adapter. Some configurations are not
supported (for example, you cannot operate the server with two
PCI SVGA adapters installed). If you must remove an adapter,
see “Removing Adapters” on page 208.
