Creating a mirrored pair of SCSI hard disk drives
To create a mirrored pair of SCSI hard disk drives, complete the following steps:
1. From the list of adapters, select the controller (channel) for the drives that you
want to mirror.
2. Select Mirroring Properties .
3. Use the arrow keys to highlight the first drive in the pair; then, press the Minus
key to change the mirroring value to Primary .
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the second drive in the pair; then, press the
Minus key to change the mirroring value to Secondary .
5. To establish a third drive that will take over the function of either mirrored drive
in the event of a failure, use the arrow keys to highlight the drive that you want
to use for that purpose; then, press the Minus key to change the mirroring value

Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller
The Ethernet controller is integrated on the system board. It provides an interface
for connecting to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1 Gbps network and provides full-duplex
(FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on
the network. If the Ethernet ports in the server support auto-negotiation, the
controller detects the data-transfer rate (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T)
and duplex mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the network and automatically
operates at that rate and mode.
You do not have to set any jumpers or configure the controller. However, you must
install a device driver to enable the operating system to address the controller. For
device drivers and information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see the
Intel Ethernet Software CD that comes with the server. To find updated information
about configuring the controller, complete the following steps.
Notes:
1. Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual procedure might
vary slightly from what is described in this document.
2. To install the device driver for the Ethernet controller, you might need to use an
external USB CD-RW/DVD drive such as the IBM and Lenovo part number
73P4515 or 73P4516. For more information, see “Firmware updates” on page
155.
