4.2 AlphaServer 1000A System Configurations

The components of the AlphaServer 1000A system that may need to be replaced or upgraded include:

Storage devices (DAT tape drive, hard disk drive, floppy drive, CD-ROM drive)

Memory modules

CPU motherboard

EISA modules

DExxx Ethernet controller *

Access I/O transmitter module (AT bus expansion kit) *

PCI modules

*KZPSA-BB SCSI controller (qty=2) (optional)

*Alarm control module

Power supply

The KZPSA-BB PCI-to-SCSI adapter comes with its own utilities diskette that can be used to modify the adapter parameters. See the StorageWorks KZPSA PCI-to-SCSI Storage Adapter User's Guide for a complete description of the adapter.

After modifying the above components, and before you boot the Tru64 UNIX operating system, you can use the SRM console commands from the IP Platform console terminal to examine the system configurations of these components, and make modifications if necessary.

The EISA Configuration Utility (ECU) must be run whenever you add, remove, or move an EISA or ISA card within the AlphaServer 1000A system. The ECU is a menu-based utility run from the SRM console that provides online help to guide you through the configuration process.

______________________________ Note ___________________________

Do not move the slot location of the Access I/O transmitter module. Changing the location of this module may result in configuration problems.
