Starting the SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility
If you have SCSI BIOS version 4.0 and later, and it includes the
LSI Logic SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility, the default configuration of the
SCSI host adapter(s) can be changed. If a conflict does exist between
device settings or if optimizing system performance is necessary, then
use this Configuration Utility.
The version number of the SCSI BIOS appears in a banner displayed on
your computer monitor during boot. If the Configuration Utility is
available, the following message also appears on your monitor:
Press Ctrl-C to start LSI Logic Configuration Utility...
This message remains on your screen for about five seconds, giving you
time to start the utility. If you decide to press
Control C
the message
changes to:
Please wait, invoking LSI Logic Configuration Utility...
After a brief pause, your computer monitor displays the Main Menu of the
LSI Logic SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility.
NVRAM is available on this LSI Logic LSIU40HVD. Changes can be
made and stored to NVRAM using this menu driven utility.
