Updating the server configuration

When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or an external SCSI device, you might see a message telling you that the
configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program automatically
starts so that you can save the new configuration information. See the section
about configuring the server in the User's Guide for more information.
Some options have device drivers that you need to install. See the documentation
that comes with the option for information about installing any required device
drivers.
The server comes with at least one microprocessor installed on the system board. If
you have installed an additional microprocessor, the server can now operate as an
SMP server. Therefore, you might need to upgrade the operating system to support
SMP. See the section about using the ServerGuide CD in the User's Guide and the
operating-system documentation for additional information.
If the server has an optional RAID adapter installed and you have just installed or
removed a hard disk drive, see the documentation that comes with the RAID
adapter for information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.
If you have just installed a Remote Supervisor Adapter to manage the server from a
remote location, see the section about setting up the adapter in the IBM xSeries
335 Type 8676 User's Guide and in the Remote Supervisor Adapter User's Guide
for information about setting up and configuring the adapter and using the adapter
to manage the server remotely. The IBM xSeries 335 Type 8676 User's Guide is on
the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. The Remote Supervisor Adapter User's Guide
comes with the adapter.
To configure the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controllers, see the section about
configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controllers in the User's Guide.
