Introduction
This appendix describes the Fast! UTIL BIOS utility, which allows advanced users
to customize the configuration of the QLA200 HBA and the connected devices.
The QLA200 HBA can be configured using Fast! UTIL, QLogic’s BIOS-resident
configuration tool. Access Fast! UTIL by pressing CTRL+Q during power-up (it may
take a few seconds for the Fast!UTIL Options menu to display). If you have more
than one QLA200 HBA, Fast! UTIL asks you to select the QLA200 HBA you want
to configure. After changing the settings for each QLA200 HBA and exiting the utility,
Fast! UTIL reboots your system to load the new parameters.
If the configuration settings are incorrect, your QLA200 HBA may
not function properly.
The following selections are available from the Fast!UTIL Options menu:
■
Configuration Settings (see section 7.2) . These setting configure the Fibre
Channel (FC) devices attached to the QLA200 HBA.
■
Scan Fibre Channel Devices (see section 7.3) . This option scans the FC loop
and displays a list of all the devices attached to the QLA200 HBA.
■
Fibre Disk Utility (see section 7.4) . This option performs maintenance functions
(for example, verifying the disk data) on FC devices attached to the QLA200.
■
Loopback Data Test (see section 7.5) . This option performs a diagnostic
loopback test.
■
Select Host Adapter (see section 7.6) . This option selects which QLA200 HBA
to configure (if you have multiple QLA200 HBAs in your system).
■
Exit Fast!UTIL
