Enabling Features on Demand RAID software
Integrated into the integrated management module is a Features on Demand RAID
software upgrade key that you can activate to get support for RAID levels 5 and
50 or 6 and 60 (depending on the Features on Demand key). For more information
and instructions for activating the Feature On Demand RAID software key, see the
IBM Features on Demand User’s Guide . To download the document, go to

Configuring RAID arrays
Through the Setup utility, you can access utilities to configure RAID arrays. The
specific procedure for configuring arrays depends on the RAID controller that you
are using. For details, see the documentation for your RAID controller. To access
the utility for your RAID controller, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the server.
Note: Approximately 10 seconds after the server is connected to ac power, the
power-on button becomes active.
2. When prompted, <F1> Setup is displayed, press F1. If you have set an
administrator password, you must type the administrator password to access
the full Setup utility menu. If you do not type the administrator password, a
limited Setup utility menu is available.
3. Select
System Settings
→
Storage
.
4. Press Enter to refresh the list of device drivers.
5. Select the device driver for your RAID controller and press Enter.
6. Follow the instructions in the documentation for your RAID controller.
IBM Advanced Settings Utility program
The IBM Advanced Settings Utility (ASU) program is an alternative to the Setup
utility for modifying UEFI settings. Use the ASU program online or out of band to
modify UEFI settings from the command line without the need to restart the
system to access the Setup utility.
You can also use the ASU program to configure the optional remote presence
features or other IMM settings. The remote presence features provide enhanced
systems-management capabilities.
In addition, the ASU program provides limited settings for configuring the IPMI
function in the IMM through the command-line interface.
Use the command-line interface to issue setup commands. You can save any of the
settings as a file and run the file as a script. The ASU program supports scripting
environments through a batch-processing mode.
