Chapter 3. Configuring your server
The following configuration programs are provided with your server:
• Configuration/Setup Utility
This program is part of the basic input/output system (BIOS) that comes with your
server. You can use this program to configure serial and parallel port
assignments, change interrupt request (IRQ) settings, change the drive startup
sequence, set the date and time, and set passwords. See “Using the
Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 13 for more information.
•
SCSISelect Utility
With the built-in SCSISelect Utility program, you can configure the devices
attached to the integrated SCSI controller. See “Using the SCSISelect utility
program” on page 20 for more information.
• ServerGuide CDs
The ServerGuide CDs include software setup and installation tools specifically
designed for IBM Netfinity servers. You can use these CDs during the initial
installation of your server to configure the server hardware and simplify your
network operating system installation. The ServerGuide CDs also contain a
collection of application programs, which you can install after your server is up
and running. See “Chapter 4. ServerGuide,” on page 23 for more detailed
information.
• ServeRAID programs
The ServeRAID programs come with the optional ServeRAID adapters and with
server models that have a ServeRAID adapter preinstalled. If your server has a
ServeRAID adapter installed, you must use the ServeRAID Configuration
program to define and configure your disk-array subsystem before you install
your operating system.
