3.1 When to Configure the LSIU40HVD
Chapter 3
Configuring the
LSIU40HVD
This chapter discusses how to change configuration settings and
includes these topics:
Section 3.1, "When to Configure the LSIU40HVD," page 3-1
Section 3.2, "Starting the SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility," page 3-2
Section 3.3, "Exiting the SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility," page 3-14
In most cases, changing the default configuration of the host adapter is
not necessary. If a conflict does exist between device settings, or if a
need exists to optimize system performance, this Configuration Utility
provides the means to change system configurations.
The configuration settings that may be changed are discussed in
Table 3.1. The global settings affect the host adapter and all SCSI
devices which are connected to it. The device settings affect only
individual SCSI devices.
