7) Set the Target IDs.
Set target identifiers (TIDs) on the SCSI devices. Each device in a channel must have a
unique TID. Provide unique TIDs for non-disk devices (CD-ROM or tapes), regardless
of the channel where they are connected. The Intel RAID Controller SRCZCRX
automatically occupies TID 7, which is the highest priority. The arbitration priority for a
SCSI device depends on its TID.
8) Power On Host System
Replace the computer cover, and reconnect the AC power cords. Turn power on to the
host computer. Ensure that the SCSI devices are powered up at the same time as, or
before, the host computer. If the computer is powered up before a SCSI device, the device
might not be recognized.
During boot, a BIOS message appears.
The firmware takes several seconds to initialize. During this time, the SRCZCRX
controller scans the SCSI channel(s).
The BIOS Configuration utility prompt times out after several seconds. The second portion
of the BIOS message displays the Intel RAID Controller SRCZCRX number, firmware
version, and cache SDRAM size. The numbering of the controllers follows the PCI slot
scanning order used by the host motherboard.
