5.4.1 System Setup Utility (SSU)
The System Setup Utility (SSU) is used for configuring the system under
operating systems such as, for example, Open Server, Netware, Unixware 7.1.0.
These operating systems are not “shared interrupt“-capable and the resources
must be assigned clearly to the PCI slots /PCI add-on boards. The parameters
set with the SSU take precedence over the BIOS Setup settings.
The System Setup Utility is on the ServerStart CD shipped with the server.
The program is a compressed archive that must be extracted to three floppy
disks. These floppy disks are then loadable.
I Refer to the README.TXT file for further information on using and
operating the SSU.
The program provides a graphical user interface (GUI) that has been extended
for server configuration and which supports the following functions:
● Assignment of resources (ports, memory, IRQs, DMA) to devices and add-
on boards before loading the operating system.
● Specification of boot sequence and system security options.
● Troubleshooting if operating system is not operational.
● System-level view of the I/O devices.
● Modifying, saving and restoring the server configuration.
The SSU is PCI-aware and supports compatible configuration files (.cfg)
supplied by the manufacturer of the peripheral devices.
