SCSISelect
The Altos G900 system includes an onboard Adaptec
®
SCSI controller
with two SCSI channels (A and B). The host adapter includes an
onboard Adaptec
®
SCSISelect configuration utility that allows you to
view and configure the settings of the host adapter and devices in the
server. This includes changing default values, checking and changing
SCSI device settings that might conflict with those of other devices in
the server, and performing a low-level format on SCSI devices installed
in the server.
Note: The SCSISelect utility is only available if the onboard SCSI
controller is enabled in BIOS setup.
Use SCSISelect to:
• Change default values
• Check and change SCSI device settings that might conflict with
those of other devices in the server
• Do a low-level format on SCSI devices installed in the server
