Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or external SAS or SCSI device, you might receive a message that the
configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts
automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. For more
information, see the section about configuring the server in the User's Guide on the
IBM xSeries Documentation CD.
Some options have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that
comes with each option for information about installing device drivers.
