Global Properties
All of these properties are controlled by menus you access through the
SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility’s Main menu. The Main menu also gives
an overview of some properties of installed LSI Logic host adapter
boards.
Important: The SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility is a powerful tool.
While using it, if you somehow disable all of your
controllers, press
Ctrl-A (or Ctrl-E on version 4.04 or
later) after memory initialization during reboot. This will
allow you to re-enable and reconfigure your controllers.
Also, if the system locks up due to NonVolatile Storage
(NVS), press
Ctrl-N to bypass the BIOS in order to
reflash the card.
2.4.1 Accessing the Configuration Utility Main Menu
After invoking the SCSI BIOS Configuration Utility, the Main menu
appears and displays a list of up to 256 PCI to SCSI host adapters in
the system and information about each of them. To select an adapter,
use only the arrow keys and enter key. The system scans the adapter’s
SCSI bus after selecting an adapter.
Only adapters with LSI Logic Control enabled can be accessed. Adapters
without NonVolatile Memory (NVM) display default settings and cannot
be changed.
Figure 2.1 illustrates this menu.
