Using the System Setup Utility (SSU)

Starting the SSU

The SSU is a collection of task-oriented modules plugged into a common framework

called the Application Framework (AF). The AF provides a launching point for

individual tasks and a location for setting customization information.

1. Turn on your video monitor and your system.

2. Start the SSU through one of two ways:

Directly from the Server Conﬁguration Software CD:

■ Insert the conﬁguration software CD into your server’s CD-ROM drive.

■ Press the reset button or Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot. When prompted to do so,

press F2 to enter BIOS Setup.

■ From the Boot Menu, select the Boot Device Priority option and press Enter.

■ Select CD-ROM as your primary boot device by using the + key to move it to

the top of the list.

■ Press Esc to exit the Boot Menu and F10 to save your choice.

■ The server will boot from the CD-ROM and display a menu of options. Follow

the instructions in the menu to start the SSU.

After creating a set of SSU diskettes from the CD:

■ Insert the ﬁrst SSU diskette in drive A.

■ Press the reset button or Ctrl+Alt+Del and press F2 to enter the BIOS Setup

and reconﬁgure your system to reboot the server from the diskette.

■ Use the same steps as listed above for the CD drive but select the diskette drive.

3. When the SSU title appears on the screen, select Utilities and press Enter.

4. Select Run System Setup Utility then press Enter.
