Configuring the Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet controller
The Ethernet controllers are integrated on the system board. They provides an
interface for connecting to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1-Gbps network and provides
full duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception
of data on the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server supports auto-negotiation,
the controllers detect the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or
1000BASE-T) and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and
automatically operates at that rate and mode.
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controller. However, you must
install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controller. To
find updated information about configuring the controllers, complete the following
steps.
Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual procedure
might vary slightly from what is described in this document.

Using LSI Configuration Utility program
Use the LSI Configuration Utility program to configure and manage redundant array
of independent disks (RAID) arrays. Be sure to use this program as described in
this document.
v Use the LSI Configuration Utility program to perform the following tasks:
– Perform a low-level format on a hard disk drive
– Create an array of hard disk drives with or without a hot-spare drive
– Set protocol parameters on hard disk drives
The integrated SAS/SATA controller with RAID capabilities supports RAID arrays.
You can use the LSI Configuration Utility program to configure RAID 1 (IM), RAID
1E (IME), and RAID 0 (IS) for a single pair of attached devices. If you install the
optional ServeRAID-MR10i SAS/SATA controller or optional ServeRAID-MR10is
VAULT SAS/SATA controller with an encryption 1078 DE chip, they provide RAID
levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 support. If you install a different type of RAID
adapter, follow the instructions in the documentation that comes with the adapter to
view or change settings for attached devices.
In addition, you can download an LSI command-line configuration program from
http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.
When you are using the LSI Configuration Utility program to configure and manage
arrays, consider the following information:
v The integrated SAS/SATA controller with RAID capabilities supports the following
features:
– Integrated Mirroring (IM) with hot-spare support (also known as RAID 1)
Use this option to create an integrated array of two disks plus up to two
optional hot spares. All data on the primary disk can be migrated.
– Integrated Mirroring Enhanced (IME) with hot-spare support (also known as
RAID 1E)
