Configuration Overview
You play a key role in how the server allocates resources to organize and interconnect
hardware devices and software programs.
This allocation process is referred to as configuration.
The steps required to configure the server depend on the number and types of devices and
programs that you install.
The server supports PCI adapters and SCSI devices.
Because of this flexibility, you can choose from among many adapters and devices.
In general, the greater the number and variety of hardware devices and software programs
that you install in the server, the more you will have to interact with the server
and the devices to correctly configure the system.
The server comes with the following hardware configuration programs:
With the built-in System Configuration Utility program, you can configure I/O functions, such as serial and
parallel port assignments; change interrupt request (IRQ) settings; and change the startup sequence for
drives that you install.
You also can use this program to set passwords for starting up the server and accessing the System Configuration Utility program.
With the built-in SCSISelect Utility program, you can configure the SCSI devices that you attach to the
SCSI controller.
You can use SCSISelect to change default values, resolve configuration conflicts, and perform a
low-level format on a SCSI hard disk drive.
Before installing a new device or program, read the documentation that comes with it.
Reading the instructions helps you to determine the steps required for installation and configuration.
The following actions are typically, but not always, required to configure the server.
