Resolving a Configuration Mismatch

If a replacement RAID Controller SRCSASPH16I has a previous configuration, a
message displays during POST stating that there is a configuration mismatch. A
configuration mismatch occurs when the configuration data in the NVRAM and the hard
disk drives are different. You need to update the configuration data in the NVRAM with
the data from the hard disk drive.
Perform the following steps to resolve the mismatch.
1. Press <Ctrl> <G> when prompted during the boot process to access the BIOS
Configuration Utility.
2. Select Configure—>View/Add Configuration. This allows viewing of the NVRAM
and drive configurations.
3. Select the configuration on disk because the drives contain the correct configuration.
4. Press <Esc> and select YES to update the NVRAM.
5. Exit and reboot.
