Using the Firmware Update Utility

The Firmware Update Utility is a DOS-based program used to update the Baseboard Management
Controller's firmware code. You only need to run the Firmware Update Utility if new firmware
code becomes necessary.

Running the Firmware Update Utility

1. Create a DOS bootable diskette. The version of DOS must be 6.0 or higher.
2. Copy the file ANSI.SYS to the diskette. Without this file, the procedure will run correctly, but
the screen will not be readable.
3. Expand the file (for example, STL2FWSDR.ZIP) to the diskette.
4. Insert the diskette into the drive and boot to it. The utility will run automatically.
5. Shut the system down and remove any floppy disks that may be in the system.
6. Disconnect the AC power cord from the system and wait 60 seconds.
7. Connect the AC power cord and power up the system.

Using the Adaptec SCSI Utility

The Adaptec SCSI utility detects the SCSI host adapters on the server board. The utility runs out of
BIOS and is used to
Change default values
Check and/or change SCSI device settings that may conflict with those of other devices in the
server

Running the SCSI Utility

1. When this message appears on the video monitor:
Press Ctrl-A to run SCSI Utility...
2. Press <Ctrl+A> to run this utility. When it appears, choose the host adapter that you want to
configure.
Another Adaptec utility that is available on the STL2 Resource CD is the Adaptec EZ SCSI utility.
It is designed to be installed from diskettes on to a DOS or Windows operating system.
