This chapter describes the Setup utilities that you can use to change your system
configuration. The utilities described in this chapter include:
T
BIOS Setup Utility
T
Symbios SCSI Utility.
The BIOS Setup Utility is used to configure the system and any option boards
you may add. The BIOS Setup Utility is stored in the system FLASH memory.
You do not need a diskette to run the BIOS Setup Utility.
The Symbios SCSI Utility is used to configure the SCSI controller in your
system, perform a SCSI disk format, or verify disk operation on the SCSI disk
drives. The utility is also used to configure any SCSI removable media devices
installed in your system. You do not need a diskette to run this utility as it is
accessible during system boot-up.
In addition, the following utilities are available for your use in configuring the
system. Information on each utility is contained in the referenced appendix.
T
System Setup Utility (SSU) (see Appendix B, "System Setup Utility")
T
Emergency Management Port (EMP) (see Appendix C, "Emergency
Management Port")
T
FRUSDR Load Utility (see Appendix C, "Emergency Management
Port").
The System Setup Utility can be used to configure your system and any option
boards you may add to your system. The SSU reads stored system event
information. Appendix B contains information on the SSU.
The Emergency Management Port (EMP) is used for remote monitoring of the
server. The FRUSDR Load Utility can be used to update the field replacement
unit (FRU), sensor data record (SDR) and desktop management interface (DMI)
flash components. Appendix C contains information on both utilities.
If your system is factory configured, you normally don't need to run the SSU,
BIOS Setup, or Symbios SCSI Utility unless you want to change the password
or security features, add certain types of option boards or devices, or upgrade
your system board.
Also included in this chapter is information on setting jumpers on the system
board for clearing
T
CMOS nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM)
T
System passwords.
