allows you to copy any system configuration changes to the diskette for safekeeping.
Refer to the Dell Server Assistant CD to create the RCU diskette.
PCI expansion cards do not require a configuration file. The PCI configuration utility in
read-only memory (ROM) automatically uses the information maintained by the RCU
to assign resources for PCI expansion cards.
After the RCU has configured all of your PCI expansion cards, you can use the utility
to lock the configuration of your PCI expansion cards so that they are always assigned
the same resources. See "Locking and Unlocking Cards" found later in this chapter
for details.
NOTE: If your system detects a card configuration problem during operation, you
receive a warning message directing you to run the RCU to correct the problem.
The RCU uses menus to guide you through the configuration process. The menus and
their options are accessed through keyboard commands.
To make a menu selection , use the up- or down-arrow key to highlight the desired
option, and then press <Enter>. In the Help menu or Advanced menu, you can also
select an option by pressing the key that corresponds to the highlighted letter in the
selection list.
To scroll up or down a screen , press the <Page Up> or <Page Down> key,
respectively.
The RCU has online instructions for each of its procedures. If you need help at any
time, press <F1> to see a help screen that offers more details about the task you are
doing.
If you are running the RCU from your hard-disk drive, remove any terminate-and-stay-
resident (TSR) programs from memory before starting the utility. These programs
take up space in system memory even when they are not running, thus reducing the
amount of memory available to the RCU. See the documentation that accompanied
these programs for instructions on removing them from memory.
If you start the utility and there is not enough memory to run it, a message is
displayed. If you receive such a message, run the utility from a diskette.
