Using the DRVCFG Utility

The configuration utility uses several input keys (F1, F2, HOME, END, and so on) that may not be supported by all terminal emulation programs. Each of these keys has an alternate key that performs the same function. Review the terminal emulation program documentation to verify which input keys are supported. If problems occur using any of the function keys or HOME/END/PGUP/PGDN, it is recommended that the alternate keys be used.

There are general key inputs throughout the configuration utility that apply on all screens:

F1 Help

Context sensitive help for the cursor-resident field.

Arrow Keys

Select Item - Up, down, left, right movement to position the cursor.

Home/End

Select Item - Up, down, left, right movement to position the cursor.

+/-

Change Item - Items with values in [ ] brackets are modifiable. Numeric keypad

 

+ and numeric keypad - (minus) update a modifiable field to its next relative

 

value.

Esc

Abort/Exit - Escape aborts the current context operation and/or exits the current

 

screen. User confirmation is solicited as required if changes have been made

 

by user. If you are using a serial console, pressing Esc causes a delay of several

 

seconds before it takes effect. This is normal system behavior and is not an error.

Enter

Execute <item> - Executable items are indicated by highlighted text and a

 

different background color. Press Enter to execute the field's associated function.

Configuration Utility Screens

All SAS BIOS configuration utility screens contain the following areas, starting at the top of the screen:

Header area

Identifies the utility and version number.

Menu area

Gives the title of the current screen, and on screens other than the Adapter

 

List screen also identifies the adapter.

Main area

The main area for presenting data. This area has a cursor for item selection,

 

and horizontal and vertical scroll bars if necessary.

Footer area

Provides general help information text.

INTEGRITY RX3600 specifications

The HP Integrity RX3600 is a high-performance server designed to address the demanding needs of enterprises that require robust computing capabilities, reliability, and scalability. Part of the HP Integrity server family, the RX3600 is built on the Itanium architecture, which is known for its exceptional processing power and advanced features that support mission-critical applications.

One of the main features of the RX3600 is its capability to handle multiple workloads with ease. The server supports up to 64 GB of RAM, allowing for efficient multitasking and enhanced performance in data-intensive environments. Its modular design also enables organizations to scale up their systems by adding additional memory or processors as needed, making it a flexible choice for growing businesses.

The RX3600 is equipped with HP's Integrity Virtual Machines (VMs), which provide virtualization capabilities that allow businesses to run multiple operating systems and applications on a single physical server. This not only maximizes resource utilization but also simplifies management by reducing the number of physical servers required in the data center.

Another significant characteristic of the RX3600 is its advanced reliability features. The server is designed with fault-tolerant components, including redundant power supplies and cooling systems. This ensures that the server remains operational even in the event of hardware failures. Additionally, HP's Error Correction Code (ECC) memory helps detect and correct data corruption, further enhancing the system's reliability.

For security, the HP Integrity RX3600 includes built-in features such as Secure Boot, which ensures that the server boots using only trusted firmware and software. This protects against unauthorized changes and vulnerabilities that could compromise data integrity.

In terms of connectivity, the RX3600 offers multiple I/O options, including advanced networking capabilities that support high-speed data transfer and improved bandwidth. This is critical for organizations that rely on data-intensive applications and need to maintain seamless connectivity.

Furthermore, the server supports a range of operating systems, including HP-UX and Linux, making it adaptable to various enterprise environments. Its robust performance, reliability, and scalability make the HP Integrity RX3600 an ideal choice for businesses looking to optimize their IT infrastructure and support their critical workloads with confidence.
