9.3 Updating ECU File
If your EISA controller is version 1.99 or earlier, you need to run the EISA
Configuration Utility (ECU) to update the configuration information stored on
nonvolatile memory in your system whenever you add or remove EISA
controllers. The system BIOS uses the contents of the EISA nonvolatile memory
during boot to initialize EISA controllers installed in your computer.
You need to do the following to update EISA information:
• Start the ECU.
• View and record EISA parameters.
NOTE
Don’t physically remove the EISA board in the
next step. Just remove it from the system
configuration.
• Remove EISA board from the ECU.
• Add EISA board to the ECU using new .CFG file on standalone utilities.
• Set BIOS address and interrupt.

Previously, in addition to BIOS address and interrupt level, you needed to
set other parameters for EISA controllers through the ECU. Presently, you
set all other parameters through the RAID Array 200 Standalone
Configuration Utility for both EISA and PCI controllers.
9.3.1 Starting the ECU
To run the ECU, follow these steps:
NOTE
ECU's differ from system to system. Check the
procedures in this guide before you respond to
screen prompts. For more information about using
the ECU on your system, refer to your system
documentation.
