The
Installation
Guide
for
the
server
also
contains
instructions
for
using
ServeRAID
Manager
to
configure
the
integrated
SCSI
controller
with
RAID
capabilities.
Notes:
1.
The
integrated
SCSI
controller
with
RAID
capabilities
supports
only
RAID
level-0,
RAID
level-1,
and
RAID
level-10.
Installing
an
optional
ServeRAID-7k
controller
provides
support
for
additional
RAID
levels.
2.
If
you
install
a
different
type
of
RAID
adapter
in
the
server,
use
the
configuration
method
described
in
the
instruction
that
come
with
that
adapter
to
view
or
change
SCSI
settings
for
attached
devices.
Before
you
install
your
operating
system,
you
must
configure
the
SCSI
or
ServeRAID
controller.
You
must
use
the
configuration
program
on
the
IBM
ServeRAID
Support
CD
to
configure
the
integrated
SCSI
controller
with
RAID
capabilities
or
to
configure
an
optional
IBM
ServeRAID
controller.
Notes:
1.
You
cannot
use
the
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD
to
configure
the
optional
controllers.
2.
To
update
the
firmware
and
BIOS
code
for
an
optional
ServeRAID
controller,
you
must
use
the
IBM
ServeRAID
Support
CD
that
comes
with
the
ServeRAID
option.
Configuring
the
controller
You
can
use
the
Configuration
wizard
to
configure
your
controller.
The
Configuration
wizard
provides
two
configuration
options:
Express

Custom.
Express
configuration
automatically
configures
your
controller,
and
you
can
use
Custom
configuration
to
configure
your
controller
manually.
Note:
If
the
integrated
RAID
controller
has
two
channels,
it
will
appear
in
the
ServeRAID
Manager
tree
as
two
controller
objects.
However,
you
can
configure
only
one
array
and
one
RAID
level-1
logical
drive.
Using
Express
configuration
Express
configuration
automatically
configures
your
controller.
It
creates
an
array
by
grouping
together
the
first
two
physical
drives
that
appear
in
the
ServeRAID
Manager
tree,
and
it
creates
a
RAID
level-1
logical
drive.

In
the
ServeRAID
Manager
tree,
click
the
controller.
