Resolving Configuration Conflicts
Resolving Configuration Conflicts
The resources used by your server consist of IRQs, DMA, I/O port
addresses, and memory. This information is useful when a resource
configuration conflict occurs.
Conflicts in the configuration occur if:
Ÿ A device is installed that requires the same resource as another
device. (For example, a conflict occurs when two adapters try to
write to the same address space.)
Ÿ A device resource is changed (for example, changing jumper
settings).
Ÿ A device function is changed (for example, assigning COM1 to
two serial ports).
Ÿ A software program is installed that requires the same resource
as a hardware device
The steps required to resolve a configuration error are determined
by the number and variety of hardware devices and software
programs you install. If a hardware configuration error is detected,
a configuration error message appears after the server completes
POST and before the operating system is loaded. You can bypass
the error by pressing Esc while the error message is displayed.
The Configuration/Setup utility program configures the system
hardware and PCI interrupt requests. The program does not
consider the requirements of the operating system or the application
programs. See “Resolving Software Configuration Conflicts” on
page 45 for additional information.
