Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or
remove an internal option or an external small computer
systems interface (SCSI) device, you might see a message
telling you the configuration has changed.
You might need
to install device drivers (required only if the option has a
device driver).
Refer to the documentation that comes with
the option for information about installing any required
device drivers.
Notes
1.
If you remove the last (terminated) SCSI device
from the external SCSI cable connected to the
SCSI connector on the back of the server, the
server might not recognize any SCSI devices that
are still connected on that SCSI channel (cable).
2.
When a hard disk drive is added and you want to
include it in the startup sequence, use the
Start
Options
selection of the Configuration/Setup
Utility programs (see “Start options” on page
29).
3.
When you install an ISA legacy adapter, you
must allocate system resources to support it (see
“Plug and Play” on page
31).
4.
You can find the list of supported hardware and
software for the server at
Wide Web.
