Chapter 7. Using the ServeRAID Mini-Configuration program
This chapter provides the information that is needed to start and use the
ServeRAID Mini-Configuration program.
The ServeRAID Mini-Configuration program provides a quick way to display the
current settings for the ServeRAID controller. You also can use this program to
perform a limited set of the configuration functions without using the IBM
ServeRAID Support CD.
Accessing the Mini-Configuration program
To access the Mini-Configuration program:
1. Turn on the server. If the server already is running, shut down the operating
system, and then restart the server.
2. When the ServeRAID Mini-Configuration prompt appears, press Ctrl+I.
3. If your server contains more than one ServeRAID controller, a selection screen
will appear. To continue:
a. Use the Up Arrow (
↑
) or Down Arrow (
↓
) key to select a controller.
b. Press Enter.
If your server contains only one ServeRAID controller, or after you select a
ServeRAID controller, the Main Menu appears.
Descriptions of the choices available from the Main Menu of the
Mini-Configuration program are as follows:
v
View Controller Status shows the current status of the ServeRAID
controller. (See “Viewing the controller status” for more information.)
v
View Configuration shows the current configuration information for the
ServeRAID controller. (See “Viewing the configuration” on page 54 for more
information.)
v
Advanced Functions is used to initialize the configuration, import
configuration from drives, configure BIOS settings, and view the controller
and PCI information. (See “Using the advanced configuration functions” on
page 54 for more information.)
4. Use the Up Arrow (
↑
) or Down Arrow (
↓
) key to highlight your choice; then,
press Enter.
5. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
6. Click Exit. If your server contains more than one ServeRAID controller, the
controller selection screen appears. Otherwise, you exit the Mini-Configuration
program.
Viewing the controller status
When you select View Controller Status from the Main Menu, the following
information displays on the screen:
v
All physical drives and their states
v
Unattend shows the current state of the Unattended mode.
– When this option is set to Off, you can choose the recovery method when a
ServeRAID controller startup error occurs.
