IBM 8485, 8490 manual Updating the server configuration

Updating the server configuration

When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal option or an external device, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. See Chapter 4, “Configuring the server,” on page 39 for additional information.

Some options have device drivers that you must install. For information about installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each option.

If the server has a ServeRAID adapter and you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, see the ServeRAID documentation that comes with the server for information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.
