Chapter 3. Configuring the server

The following configuration programs come with the server:

vConfiguration/Setup Utility program

The Configuration/Setup Utility program is part of the basic input/output system (BIOS). Use it to configure serial port assignments, change interrupt request (IRQ) settings, change the startup-device sequence, set the date and time, and set passwords. For information about using this program, see “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 38.

vLenovo EasyStartup DVD

This bootable DVD automatically launches the ThinkServer EasyStartup program, which simplifies the process of installing an operating system and device drivers on your server. The ThinkServer EasyStartup program prompts you for information required by the operating system for installation, prepares the hard disk, prompts you to insert your operating system installation disc (CD or DVD), and launches an unattended installation of the operating system. For additional information, see the RS110 Installation Guide .

vLSI Logic Configuration Utility program

Use the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program to configure devices that are attached to the SAS/SATA controller. For information about using this program, see “Using the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program” on page 44.

Important: If the server is a simple-swap SATA model that contains a SATA RAID back plate, you can use the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program to configure the simple-swap SATA hard disk drives.

The following table lists the different server configurations and the applications that are available for configuring and managing RAID arrays.
