Configuring EISA, ISA, and PCI Adapters
Before installing a new device or program, read the documentation
that came with it. Reading the instructions helps you to determine
the steps required for installation and configuration. The following
list provides a preview of the actions that might be required to
configure your server.
Note: During POST, your server automatically configures ISA Plug
and Play, EISA, and PCI devices.
Run the System Configuration Utility program when you first set up
and configure your system, if you have added or removed any
hardware options, or if you receive an error message instructing you
to do so.
1. Start the System Configuration Utility program and:
a. Record the current configuration settings.
See “Starting the System Configuration Utility Program” on
page 47.
b. Install configuration files (.CFG).
Note: If the .CFG files didn't come with the adapter, see
“Configuration Files” on page 59.
