User’s Guide for Server Configuration Wizard (SCW) Utility

5 Getting Started

Booting the Server

When booting the server from an Intel Server Deployment Toolkit CD, the startup files (autoexec.bat and config.sys) will create a RAMdrive. This RAMdrive will be used as a temporary storage area for the different components of the utility. Information on the RAMdrive is lost on power off or reboot.

Server Probing

SCW will probe the server and store the component information to data files.

Probed areas include the:

Baseboard

Chassis

FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) devices

SDRs (Sensor Data Records)

BIOS and Firmware versions

Channels

Configured Users

Intel Management Modules
