Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or external 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 the section
about configuring the server in the User’s Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation
CD.
Some options have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that
comes with each option for information about installing device drivers.
The server comes with at least one microprocessor. If more than one
microprocessor is installed, 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 the section about using the ServerGuide
™
Setup and
Installation CD in the User’s Guide and the operating-system documentation.
If the server has an optional RAID adapter and you have installed or removed a
hard disk drive, see the documentation that comes with the RAID adapter for
information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.
If you have installed a Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine to manage the server
remotely, see the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine and Remote Supervisor
Adapter II User’s Guide , which comes with the adapter, for information about setting
up, configuring, and using the adapter.
For information about configuring the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller, see the
