Scsi Bios (Scsiselect) - NEC Bull NovaScale R620 User Manual

SCSI BIOS (SCSISelect)

The "SCSISelect" utility makes settings of the SCSI controller on a motherboard. You can start it up by simple key
operation during POST execution without using any special start-up disk.
IMPORTANT:
Because the server is installed with the latest version of the SCSISelect utility, your screen display may be different
from the one described in this guide. For information on options different from those described in this guide, refer
to the online help or ask your service agent.
Usage of the SCSISelect utility
The SCSISelect utility is activated when you configure the transfer speed of SCSI devices connected to the server
(except hard disk drive), and allows you to make settings.
IMPORTANT:
SCSI configuration must be set by starting up the utility on a SCSI controller basis. The server is equipped with
one SCSI controller. If you have added SCSI controller boards, you need to make SCSI controller settings as many
as the number of added SCSI controller boards in addition to the configuration for the built-in SCSI controller. The
utility used for changing settings may be different.
