The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. For more information, see the section about configuring the server in the User's Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. Some options have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that comes with each option for information about installing device drivers. The server comes with at least one microprocessor on the microprocessor board. If more than one microprocessor is installed, the server can operate as a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) server. You might have to upgrade the operating system to support SMP. For more information, see the section about using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD in the User's Guide and the operating-system documentation. If the server has an optional RAID adapter and you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, see the documentation that comes with the RAID adapter for information about reconfiguring the disk arrays. For information about setting up, configuring, and using the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine, see the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine User's Guide that comes with the adapter. For information about configuring the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller, see the User's Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. 24 IBM xSeries 366 Type 8863: Installation Guide
