Chapter 2. Configuring your server
The following configuration programs come with your server:
v Configuration/Setup Utility
This is part of the basic input/output system (BIOS) code in your server. Use it to
configure serial port assignments, view system information, change startup
options, set the date and time, and set the password. For information about using
this utility program, see “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program”.
v LSI Logic Configuration Utility
Use this to configure the integrated SCSI controller with RAID capabilities and
the devices that are attached to it. For information about using this utility
program, see “Using the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program” on page 12.
v
ServeRAID Manager
ServeRAID Manager is available as a stand-alone program. If a ServeRAID
adapter is installed in your server or if you are using the RAID capabilities of the
SCSI controller, use ServeRAID Manager to define and configure your disk-array
subsystem
before you install the operating system. For information about using
this program, see “Using ServeRAID Manager” on page 13.
