StorageWorks RAID Array 200 Controller Installation and Standalone Configuration Utility
3–2 EK–SWRA2–IG. C01
3.2 Running the ECU
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
• Add new EISA boards to the ECU
• Set BIOS address and interrupt
In previous versions, certain EISA controller parameters were set through the
ECU. The RAID Array 200 Standalone Configuration Utility now sets these
parameters for both EISA and PCI controllers.
3.2.1 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.
1. Remove the cover from your system and locate the empty EISA slots
2. Boot from your system ECU configuration diskette, for Intel-based systems.
For AXP-based systems running DEC OSF/1 or VMS, boot to console
prompt and type: runecu. For AXP-based systems running Microsoft
Windows NT for AXP systems, choose Run ECU From Floppy from the
ARC menu.
3. Select the function that configures your system and press the Enter key.
4. Follow the instructions for system configuration until a menu similar to
Figure 3–1 displays on your screen.
