Select this choice to view the SCSI IDs that are assigned to each device or to
format a SCSI device.
To use the utility program, select a drive from the list. Read the on-screen
instructions carefully before making a selection.
Note: If you press Ctrl+A before the selected drives are ready, an Unexpected
SCSI Command Failure screen might appear. Restart the server and
watch the SCSISelect messages as each drive starts. After the drive that
you want to view or format starts, press Ctrl+A.
Using the ServeRAID configuration program
See the documentation provided with your ServeRAID adapter or, if you are installing
an IBM ServeRAID adapter, refer to the IBM User’s Reference for the ServeRAID-4
Ultra160 SCSI controller.
The IBM ServeRAID User’s Reference provides information for configuring an IBM
ServeRAID controller, installing devices, and installing and using the ServeRAID utility
programs and the IBM ServeRAID cluster solution.
Note: If your server model came with an operating system installed, such as
Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server, see the software documentation
provided with your server for configuration information.
Using the ServerGuide CD
The ServerGuide CD includes easy-to-use software setup tools and installation tools
that are specifically designed for the IBM server. The ServerGuide Setup and
Installation program detects the server model and hardware options that are installed
and uses that information during setup to configure the hardware. The ServerGuide
tools simplify network operating system (NOS) installations by providing updated
device drivers, and in some cases, installing them automatically.
Note: If your server model came with an operating system installed, such as
Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server, see the software documentation
provided with your server for configuration information.
If a newer version of the ServerGuide software is available, you can purchase an
update package. For details, see the ServerGuide Updates form that comes with the
server, or go to the ServerGuide fulfillment Web site at
http://www.ibm.com/pc/qtechinfo.migr-42kppt.html.
The ServerGuide software has the following features to make setup easier:
• An easy-to-use interface with online help
• Diskette-free setup and configuration programs that are based on detected
hardware
• Start ServeRAID manager to configure your ServeRAID
• A system BIOS update program, which updates the BIOS directly from the CD
• Device drivers that are provided for your server model and detected hardware
• NOS partition size and file-system type that are selectable during setup
