Configuring Your System
Configuring Your System
Configuration and setup utilities are used to change
your system configuration. You can configure your
system, as well as option boards you may add to your
system, using the System Configuration Utility (SCU)
diskette delivered with your system. Also, several
unique system parameters are configured using BIOS
Setup which is stored in the system FLASH memory. A
diskette is not needed to run BIOS Setup.
The SCSISelect Utility is used if you need to configure
either of the SCSI controllers in your system or to
perform a SCSI disk format or verify disk operation of
these drives.
If your system has been factory configured, the SCU,
BIOS Setup, or SCSISelect utilities do not need to be
run unless you want to change the password or security
features, add option boards or devices, or upgrade your
system board.
There are some system configuration parameters that
are set by jumpers. However, these parameters do not
usually require change.
Finally, the EZ-SCSI utility is included with your
system on diskette. This program performs MS-DOS
driver installation for SCSI devices in your system and
also installs basic utilities that format and manage
SCSI hard disk drives. Refer to the documentation on
the utility diskette for more information.
This chapter provides procedures for running the SCU,
BIOS Setup, and the SCSISelect utility. Also, a section
describing the system jumper configurations is
presented. Several configuration tables are provided in
this chapter to record changes you make to the default
system configuration.
