Advanced Configuration Functions: You can select the Advanced Functions choice to reset the ServeRAID adapter or controller, initialize the configuration, import the configuration information from the drives, configure BIOS settings, and view the adapter, controller, or PCI information. When you select the Advanced Functions choice from the Main Menu, the following choices appear on the screen. Attention Be careful when making selections from this menu. If you change the configuration, you might lose data. Initialize Configuration lets you reset the configuration. You will not have access to any data stored on the logical drives attached to the selected ServeRAID adapter or controller. This choice deletes the existing configuration information, sets all functional hard disk drives attached to the controller to the Ready state, and deletes all logical drives defined for the controller. This choice does not change any of the ServeRAID adapter or controller settings (such as the stripe-unit size, rebuild rate, and so on) from their current or customized values. Import Configuration from Drive reads the most common configuration from the drives in the system and copies it to the ServeRAID adapter or controller NVRAM and EEPROM module. Configure BIOS Settings lets you modify the BIOS settings, such as the Bootable CD-ROM and INT13 Extensions settings, for the ServeRAID adapter or controller. (See "Setting the bootable CD-ROM feature" on page 97 for more information.) 96 Netfinity Server HMM
