Configuring the Host Adapter

Below the list of host adapters on the Main Menu display, you see eight
options. They are described in detail below. If these settings are altered,
the system will reboot after the Quit option is selected, which allows the
user to exit from the Configuration Utility.

3.2.1.1 Change Adapter Status

The change adapter status allows the user to activate or deactivate a
host adapter and all SCSI devices attached to it. When this option is
used to make a change, the change takes place after a reboot upon exit
from the utility. Here is an example of the Change Status on Next Boot
Menu:

To change an adapter's status, select it and press Enter. Press the
Escape (Esc) key to exit from this menu.

3.2.1.2 Adapter Boot Order

The adapter boot order allows the user to set the order in which host
adapters will boot when you have more than one LSI Logic host adapter
in your system. When this option is selected, the Boot Order menu
appears. Here is an example of the Boot Order Menu:
