Option ROM Configuration for Arrays Utility
The Option ROM Configuration for Arrays (ORCA) utility is a ROM-based utility for manually
configuring an array on a Smart Array controller.
NOTE:
Due to the type of server you purchased, your output may not exactly match the output
shown in this section.
To use
ORCA
, follow these steps:
1.
Power on the server. POST runs, and any array controllers that are in the server are initialized
one at a time. During each controller initialization process, POST halts for several seconds
while an
ORCA
prompt message appears.
2.
At the
ORCA
prompt:
•
If you are connected using a headless console, press the
Esc+8
combination.
•
Otherwise, press
F8
. The
ORCA Main Menu
appears, allowing you to create, view, or
delete a logical drive.
