Step 12 Power Up
Replace the computer cover and reconnect the AC power cords. Turn power on to the host
computer. Set up the power supplies so that the SCSI devices are powered up at the same time as
or before the host computer. If the computer is powered up before a SCSI device, the device might
not be recognized.
During boot, the MegaRAID BIOS message appears:
MegaRAID Enterprise 1600 Disk Array Adapter BIOS Version x.xx date
Copyright (c) LSI Logic Corporation
Firmware Initializing... [ Scanning SCSI Device
...(etc.)...
]
The firmware takes several seconds to initialize. During this time the adapter will scan each SCSI
channel. When it is ready, the following lines appear:
Host Adapter-1 Firmware Version x.xx DRAM Size 16 MB
0 Logical Drives found on the Host Adapter
0 Logical Drives handled by BIOS
Press <Ctrl><M> to run MegaRAID Enterprise BIOS Configuration Utility
The <Ctrl> <M> prompt times out after several seconds.
The MegaRAID Enterprise 1600 host adapter (controller) number, firmware version, and cache
DRAM size are displayed in the second portion of the BIOS message. The numbering of the
controllers follows the PCI slot scanning order used by the host motherboard.
Step 13 Run MegaRAID Configuration Utility
