A. I2O SAC Utility
Using I2O
1. Make sure that the iRTOS embedded in all IOPs properly supports the opera-
tions that the SAC utilities provide. For example, iRTOS upgrade is supported
in some iRTOS versions and not in others. Consult your iRTOS vendor's docu-
mentation for details on supported and unsupported I2O(R) messages. The typi-
cal messages of concern are ExecSwDownload and ExecConfigValidate.
2. Boot off of the bootable disk.
3. Type "iopsetup main.htm".
NOTES:
* Many early PCI systems, especially desktop systems, did not include support
for PCI-to-PCI bridging or multi-function PCI devices in the system BIOS.
Depending on the system manufacturer, it may be possible to get a BIOS up-
grade that includes support for these features. Intel strongly urges you to contact
the system or motherboard manufacturer or BIOS vendor to verify whether or
not the system can support these features.
* The REBOOT HTML page is the preferred method for rebooting the host sys-
tem after completing configuration operations. However, this may not work on
all host systems. If the REBOOT HTML page doesn't work, use the host system's
reset switch or power switch to reset the host system.
* The utility has only been tested with MSDOS 6.22, 5.0, and ROMDOS 6.22. It
is unknown if it will function correctly under other versions.
* DDM and iRTOS download and DDM validation operations are the only soft-
ware module operations known to operate correctly and thus are the only ones
allowed.
* If a form is continually submitted with no changes in form data, on the third and
subsequent times the form is cached. Because the cursor isn't moved at this time,
the browser appears to be hung up, but it is actually operational. If any form data
is changed and the form is re-submitted, normal operation resumes.
* The browser always updates the SOFTWARE MODULE OPERATIONS menu
when a change in form data occurs. This means that you will rarely need to use
the "REFRESH MENU" submit option. You need to use this option only when
a removable media for the currently selected drive has been removed and re-
placed with a different one. In this case, use the "REFRESH MENU" submit
button to update the directory and files lists.
* The SAC utilities have been tested against IOPs that are running an iRTOS that
implements Version 1.5 of the Intelligent I/O (I2O Architecture Specification.
The SAC utilities may not function correctly when running with iRTOSs that
implement future versions of the specification.
