Configuring the Host Adapter

Figure 3.1

Main Menu

Below the list of host adapters on the Main Menu display, you see eight
options. They are described in detail below. If these settings are altered,
the system reboots upon exit from the Configuration Utility using the Quit
option.

3.2.1.1 Change Adapter Status

Change Adapter status allows you to activate or deactivate a host
adapter and all SCSI devices attached to it. When this option is used to
make a change, the change takes place after a reboot that is automatic
upon exit from the utility.

Figure 3.2

is an example of the Change Status on Next Boot menu:
