ServeRAID ROM Update Wizard
The IBM ServeRAID ROM (read-only memory) Update Wizard is a program
designed to automatically identify and scan each ServeRAID controller installed in
your server. If the BIOS and firmware code need updating, the wizard will give you
the opportunity to do so.
Device drivers
The device drivers are located in the following directory on the IBM ServeRAID
Support CD:
e :/ operatingsystem /DRIVER
where e is the CD-ROM drive and operatingsystem is the specific operating system
used in the ServeRAID installation.
The device drivers are also located on the operating-system-specific IBM
ServeRAID Support diskettes.
ServeRAID Manager program
Use this program to configure arrays and logical drives using ServeRAID
controllers. ServeRAID Manager operates in two ways: in startable-CD mode and
as an installed program. In startable-CD mode, you can configure your ServeRAID
adapter
before you install an operating system.
This program is available in the following directory:
e :/ operatingsystem /MANAGER
where e is the CD-ROM drive and operatingsystem is the specific operating system
used in the ServeRAID installation.
IPSSEND command-line program
Use this program to configure and manage your ServeRAID controllers. This
program is available on both the
IBM ServeRAID Support CD and the
operating-system-specific IBM ServeRAID Support diskettes.
