IBM 8183 manual Using Security Profile by Device, Using IDE Drives Setup

Page 43

Using Security Profile by Device

Security Profile by Device is used to enable or disable user access to the following devices:

IDE controller

When this feature is set to Disable, all devices connected to the

 

IDE controller (such as hard disk drives or the CD-ROM drive)

 

are disabled and will not be displayed in the system

 

configuration.

Diskette Drive Access

When this feature is set to Disable, the diskette drive cannot be

 

accessed.

Diskette Write Protect

When this feature is set to Enable, all diskettes are treated as if

 

they are write-protected.

To set Security Profile by Device, do the following:

1.Start the IBM Setup Utility program (see “Starting the IBM Setup Utility program” on page 27).

2.From the IBM Setup Utility program menu, select Security.

3.Select Security Profile by Device.

4.Select the desired devices and settings and press Enter.

5.Return to the IBM Setup Utility program menu and select Exit and then Save Settings or Save and exit the Setup Utility.

Note: If you do not want to save the settings, select Exit the Setup Utility without saving.

Using IDE Drives Setup

In addition to listing the different IDE devices, there are options for configuring the serial and parallel IDE controllers.

Parallel ATA

This setting allows the user to disable one or both of the parallel

 

IDE controllers.

Serial ATA

This setting allows the user to disable the serial ATA controllers.

Native Mode Operation This setting is only available when the serial ATA controller is enabled. This allows the user to specify whether the parallel and serial ATA controllers will operate in ″legacy″ or ″native″ mode. By default, they will operate in native mode unless both parallel ATA controllers are populated and a serial ATA drive is present. Then the serial ATA drive will become ″native″ mode. The user can select Automatic or the serial ATA controller to run in ″native″ mode. However, running in ″native″ mode might not work with older operating systems.

To configure IDE Drives Setup, do the following:

1.Start the IBM Setup Utility program (see “Starting the IBM Setup Utility program” on page 27).

2.From the IBM Setup Utility program menu, select Devices.

3.Select IDE Drives Setup.

4.Select the desired devices and settings and press Enter.

5.Return to the IBM Setup Utility program menu and select Exit and then Save Settings.
