Adapter configuration
Along with the documentation that comes with your adapter, use
the following information to help with adapter configuration.
Plug and Play adapters
Plug and Play is a configuration method that makes expanding your
server easier. Support for Plug and Play is built into the system
board of your server.
If an adapter is Plug and Play, then there are no switches or
jumpers that must be set on the adapter. A Plug and Play adapter
comes with configuration specifications set in memory to provide
installation information to the server during startup. When you
install or remove Plug and Play adapters, this information is
interpreted by the basic input/output system (BIOS), which supports
Plug and Play technology. If the required resources are available,
then the BIOS software automatically configures the adapter around
the resources already in use by other devices.
Adapters designed for PCI slots are Plug and Play devices; many
ISA adapters are not Plug and Play devices. (ISA adapters that are
not Plug and Play are referred to as legacy adapters.)
Note: See “Solving POST error message problems” on page 152 for
information on error messages resulting from resource
conflicts.
Netfinity ServeRAID Adapter
The integrated SCSI controller in your server is designed to support
an optional Netfinity ServeRAID adapter. This adapter must be
installed in slot 2, which has the RAIDport extension connector. See
“Adapters” on page 101 for an illustration of the slots on the system
board. For more information about the Netfinity ServeRAID
adapter, see the documentation that comes with the adapter.
