Configuring Your System
This Configuration and setup utilities are used to change your system configuration. You can
configure your system, as well as option boards you may add to your system, using the BIOS Setup
Utility. Several unique system parameters are configured using the BIOS Setup, which is stored in
the system FLASH memory.
You can also configure your system, including reserving resources required by option boards,
using the System Setup Utility (SSU). Also, the SSU is used to read stored system event
information. Information on the SSU may be found in Appendix B of this User's Guide.
The Symbios Configuration Utility detects the SCSI host adapters on the system board. Use this
utility if you need to configure the SCSI controller in your system or to perform a SCSI disk format
or verify disk operation on the SCSI disk drives. The Symbios Configuration Utility is also used to
configure any SCSI removable media devices installed in your system.
If your system has been factory configured, the SSU, BIOS Setup, or Symbios Configuration Utility
do not need to be run unless you want to change the password or security features, add certain
types of option boards or devices, or upgrade your system board.
This chapter also provides information on several system configuration parameters that are set by
jumpers on the system board. However, these parameters do not usually require change.
Use the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM to create the device driver and SSU diskettes.
