Configuring Raid Disk Drives; Basic Raid Configuration - Intergraph InterServe 80 SL System Setup

To restart the system in VGA mode:
1. Power down and restart the system.
2. At the boot screen, select the VGA mode option.
After logging on to Windows NT in VGA mode, check for the following common
configuration problems and solutions:
u
A multi-sync monitor is selected, but a graphics display device with different video
timings (such as an Intergraph InterVue monitor) is connected to the system. Select the
appropriate monitor type as described previously.
u
The monitor selection is inappropriate for the monitor connected to the system. Select a
new monitor.
u
There is not enough video display memory to support the selected graphics resolution and
color depth. Install and reconfigure the video display to use a lower resolution and color
depth.
Restart the system and, when the boot screen displays, select the appropriate non-VGA
Windows NT Server to use the reconfigured video display driver. If problems persist, contact
the Intergraph Customer Response Center at 1-800-633-7248 for help.

Configuring RAID Disk Drives

NOTE This section only applies to systems that use RAID disk drives.
This section describes the RAID hardware used in the system, explains the standard RAID
disk configuration, and provides guidelines to configure additional RAID drives. The
standard RAID hardware is pre-configured by Intergraph Computer Systems before shipment.
CAUTION If you change the factory-set configuration of RAID disk drives, you must reinstall the system
software. See Chapter 7 for instructions.

Basic RAID Configuration
