SAS Configuration utility makes settings of the built-in SAS controller. You can start it up by
simple key operation during POST execution without using any special startup disk.
IMPORTANT:
Because the server is installed with the latest version of the utility, your screen display
may be different from the one described in this guide. For information on options different
from those described in this guide, refer to the online help or ask your service agent.
When you start this utility, select [Server], [Monitoring Configuration], [Option ROM
Scan Monitoring], and [Disabled]. If [Enabled] is selected, system may reboot while you
are making settings. However, set [Option ROM Scan Monitoring] to [Enabled] after
making settings.
This utility is set for the CPU/IO module of the primary side. When you configure the
CPU/IO module of the secondary side, first power off the server, plug out and plug in the
AC code of the primary side. Then start the server.
Do not change the settings on each utility menu, as doing so causes failure and
malfunction of this server.
