4. Repeat step 2 for the remaining hinge. Updating the server configuration When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal or external device, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed. 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 System x Documentation CD. Some optional devices have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that comes with each device for information about installing device drivers. The server comes with at least one microprocessor. 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. If you have installed a Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine to manage the server remotely, see the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine User's Guide, which comes with the adapter, for information about setting up, configuring, and using the adapter. For information about configuring the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller, see the User's Guide. Chapter 2. Installing optional devices 33

Updating
the
server
configuration
When
you
start
the
server
for
the
first
time
after
you
add
or
remove
an
internal
or
external
device,
you
might
receive
a
message
that
the
configuration
has
changed.
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
System
x
Documentation
CD.
Some
optional
devices
have
device
drivers
that
you
must
install.
See
the
documentation
that
comes
with
each
device
for
information
about
installing
device
drivers.
The
server
comes
with
at
least
one
microprocessor.
If
more
than
one
microprocessor
is
installed,
the
server
can
operate
as
a

(SMP)
server.
You
might
have
to
upgrade
the

system
to
support
SMP.
For

see
the
section
about
using
the
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD
in
the
User’s

about
reconfiguring
the
disk
arrays.
If
you
have
installed
a

II
SlimLine
to
manage
the
server
remotely,
see
the
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
II
SlimLine
User’s
Guide
,
which
comes
with
the
adapter,
for
information
about
setting
up,
configuring,
and
using
the
adapter.
