Updating the server configuration Updating the server configuration Attention: The configuration information in this section applies to installing options. For more information on using the Configuration/Setup Utility program, see "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 39. When you start your server for the first time after you add, remove, or replace an internal option or an external SCSI device, a message might appear, indicating that the configuration has changed. The configuration settings must be updated. This reconfiguration is performed automatically by the server or manually by you. When the server automatically configures an option, it uses system programs. However, you must save the new settings through the Configuration/Setup Utility program. If the system programs do not update the settings, you can use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to reconfigure the appropriate settings. For example, when you start your server after adding memory or after adding most internal hard disk drives, the settings are automatically updated, and you use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to save those changes. However, if a resource conflict arises after an ISA legacy adapter is installed or removed, you must manually update the server configuration and save the information. Notes: 1. If an error message related to the chassis-intrusion detector appears after you restart your server, you must enter the administrator password. Note that chassis intrusion can be detected only if the chassis-intrusion detector feature is activated, which occurs when enhanced security is enabled and an administrator password is set. 2. If you remove a SCSI device, the server might not recognize any SCSI devices that are still connected. See Chapter 5, "Solving problems" for information about correcting this situation. 3. To run the Configuration/Setup Utility program, follow the instructions in "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 39. Chapter 4. Installing options 153
