Chapter 3. Configuring the server The following configuration programs come with the server: v Configuration/Setup Utility program The Configuration/Setup Utility program is part of the basic input/output system (BIOS). Use it to configure serial port assignments and scalable partitions, change interrupt request (IRQ) settings, change the startup-device sequence, set the date and time, and set passwords. For information about using this program, see "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 60. v IBM ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD The ServerGuide program provides software-setup tools and installation tools that are designed for the server. Use this CD during the installation of the server to configure basic hardware features, such as an integrated SAS controller with RAID capabilities, and to simply the installation of your operating system. For information about using this CD, see "Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD" on page 68. v Boot Menu program The Boot Menu program is part of the BIOS. Use it to override the startup sequence that is set in the Configuration/Setup Utility program and temporarily assign a device to be first in the startup sequence. For information about using this program, see "Using the Boot Menu program" on page 70. v Ethernet controller configuration For information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see "Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller" on page 70. v Baseboard management controller utility programs Use these programs to configure the baseboard management controller, to apply updates to the firmware, and to remotely manage a server. For information about using these programs, see "Using the baseboard management controller utility programs" on page 70. v Remote Supervisor Adapter II configuration For information about setting up and cabling the Remote Supervisor Adapter II, see the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine and Remote Supervisor Adapter II User's Guide on the IBM System x Documentation CD. v IBM Electronic Service Agent IBM Electronic Service Agent is a software tool that monitors the server for hardware error events and automatically submits electronic service requests to the IBM Support Center. Also, it can collect and transmit system configuration information on a scheduled basis so that the information is available to you and your support representative. It uses minimal system resources, is available free of charge, and can be downloaded from the Web. For more information and to download Electronic Service Agent, go to http://www.ibm.com/support/electronic/. v RAID configuration programs - LSI Logic Configuration Utility program Use the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program to perform the initial configuration on the disk-array subsystem that is connected to the integrated SAS controller with RAID capabilities and, optionally, the ServeRAID-MR10k controller. For information about using this program, see "Using the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program" on page 74. - LSI Logic MegaRAID Storage Manager program © Copyright IBM Corp. 2009 59
