42 NovaScale Blade 2320 Installation and User’s Guide
4. Ping an external computer on the network connected to the switch module or pass-
thru module. If you can ping the external computer, the Ethernet controller that you
enabled is associated with the switch module or pass-thru module in I/O-module bay
1. The other Ethernet controller in the blade server is associated with the switch
module or pass-thru module in I/O-module bay 2.
If you have installed an I/O-expansion card in the blade server, communications from the
expansion card are routed to I/O-module bays 3 and 4, if these bays are supported by your
NovaScale Blade Chassis. You can verify which controller on the card is routed to which
I/O-module bay by performing the same test and using a controller on the expansion card
and a compatible switch module or pass-thru module in I/O-module bay 3 or 4.
Configuring a SCSI RAID Array
Configuring a SCSI RAID array applies to a blade server in which two SAS hard disk
drives are installed. You can also configure a SCSI RAID array when you have a SCSI
expansion unit in which SCSI hard disk drives are installed.
Two SAS hard disk drives in the blade server can be used to implement and manage RAID
level-0 (striping) or RAID level-1 (mirror) arrays. For the blade server, you must
configure the SCSI RAID using the LSI Configuration Utility program.
Using the LSI Logic Configuration Utility Program
You can use the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program to:
•
Set the SCSI device scan order
•
Set the SCSI ID for the controller
Important: Depending on your RAID configuration, you must create the array before you install the
operating system in the blade server.
Starting the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program
To start the LSI configuration utility program, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the blade server (make sure that the blade server is the owner of the keyboard,
video, and mouse) and watch the monitor screen.
2. When the
<<<Press Ctrl-C to start LSI Configuration Logic
Utility>>>
prompt appears, press Ctrl-C.
3. Use the arrow keys to select the controller (channel) from the list of adapters; then,
press Enter.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen to change the settings of the selected items; then,
press Enter. If you select Device Properties and Mirroring Properties , additional
screens are displayed.
