Configuring Your System
Configuration and setup utilities are used to change your system configuration. You can configure your system, as well as any option boards you may add to your system, using the Resource Configuration Utility (RCU) diskette. Also, several unique system parameters are configured using BIOS Setup (stored in the system FLASH memory). A diskette is not needed to run BIOS Setup.
The SCSISelect Utility, also stored in the system FLASH memory, is used if you need to configure the SCSI controller in your system or to perform a SCSI disk format or verify disk operation of these drives. A diskette is not needed to run SCSISelect.
A Utilities diskette contains the Event Log Utility. The Event Log Utility is used to read stored system event information.
If your system has been factory configured, the RCU, BIOS Setup, or SCSISelect utilities do not need to be run unless you want to change the password or security features, add option boards or devices, or upgrade the boards in your system.
There are some system configuration parameters that are set by jumpers. However, these parameters do not usually require change. Finally, the
The following provide procedures for running the RCU, BIOS Setup, and the Utilities diskette. Also, a section describing the system jumper configurations is presented. Several configuration tables are also provided to record changes you make to the default system configuration.

Resource Configuration Utility (RCU)
The Resource Configuration Utility is used to configure your system. The RCU can be used to configure the memory subsystem, peripheral device subsystems, and interface adapters. RCU recognizes ISA
After you add options using the RCU, the system automatically configures and initializes them during system initialization at boot up.
