Running the SSU 

When the SSU starts in the default local execution mode, the SSU accepts input from the keyboard 
or mouse.  The SSU presents a VGA-based GUI on the primary monitor. 

If you run the SSU from read-only media, such as the CD-ROM, you cannot save user preference 
settings (such as screen colors). 

The SSU supports ROM-DOS version 6.22.  The SSU will not operate from a “DOS box” running 
under an operating system such as Windows. 

To start the SSU: 

1.  Start the SSU using one of the following methods: 

 

From diskettes:

  Insert the first SSU diskette in drive A and boot the server from the 

diskette.  You are prompted to insert the second diskette.  After loading completes the SSU 
starts automatically. 

 

From the System Resource or ISM CD-ROM:  

Boot the server to the System Resource 

CD and start the SSU from the Utilities menu. 

 

From the Service Partition:  

Boot the server to the Service Partition and execute the 

following DOS commands: 

 

C:\>  cd ssu 

 

C:\SSU>  ssu.bat 

2.  The mouse driver loads if it is available; press 

Enter

 to continue. 

3.  When the SSU title appears on the screen, press 

Enter

 to continue. 

Working with the GUI 

You can access features of the GUI using the mouse or keyboard: 

• 

Mouse

—Click once to choose menu items and buttons or to select items in a list, such as the 

Available Tasks list.  To run a list item, such as one of from the Available Tasks list, select the 
item and click OK or double-click the item. 

• 

Keyboard

—Use the tab and arrow keys to highlight buttons and press the spacebar or <Enter> 

to execute.  You can also execute a menu or button by using the <Alt> key in combination with 
the underlined letter in the name of the menu or button. 

You can have more than one task open at the same time, although some tasks might require 
complete control to avoid possible conflicts.  The tasks achieve complete control by keeping the 
task as the center of operation until you close the task window. 

The SSU has a build-in help system, which you access by clicking a Help button or choosing the 
Help menu.
