Note: After selecting Restore default settings, check the NVRAM settings (for
example the host bus adapter and advanced adapter settings) against the
values that are recommended in this document and in the device driver
READMEs for the appropriate operating system.
You can use the Raw NOVRAM Data option to display the adapter NVRAM
contents in hexadecimal format. This is a troubleshooting tool. You cannot modify
the data.
You can use the Scan Fibre Channel Devices option to scan the fibre-channel loop
and list all the connected devices by loop ID. Information about each device is
listed, for example, vendor name, product name, and revision. This information is
useful when you are configuring your DS4000 FC2-133 and attached devices.
Attention: When you perform a low-level format, it removes all data on the disk.
You can use the Fibre Channel Disk Utility option to scan the fibre-channel loop bus
and list all the connected devices by loop ID. You can select a disk device and
perform a low-level format or verify the disk media or data.
You can use the Loopback Data Test option to verify the basic transmit and receive
functions of the adapter. A fibre-channel loopback connector option must be
installed into the optical interface connector on the DS4000 FC2-133 before starting
the test. See Figure 3 on page 2 for the location of the optical interface connector.
You can use the Select Host Adapter option to select, configure, or view a specific
adapter if you have multiple adapters in your system.
After you complete the configuration, use the ExitFast!UTIL option to exit the menu
and restart the system.
