Upgrades and Options
Note: The configuration files for boards supplied
with your server have already been included on the
SCU diskette.
■ EISA Adapters - Copy the configuration files
(.CFG) and, if supplied, the overlay file (.OVL), to
the SCU diskette. For details on running the SCU,
refer to Chapter 4.
Consider the following points when installing option
boards:
■ Any EISA slot can be a master or a slave.
■ EISA bus priority is slot J3 - J6, slot J3 having the
highest priority. EISA slot J3 is the bottom option
board slot on the system board. See Figure 5-10 for
EISA slot numbers.
■ PCI bus priority is slot J11 - J7, slot J11 having the
highest priority. PCI slot J11 is the top PCI option
board slot on the system board. See Figure 5-10 for
PCI slot numbers.
■ On system power-up and reboot, BIOS initiates a
scan sequence looking for Plug-and-Play option
boards installed since the last power up or reboot.
The Plug-and-Play scan sequence is as follows:
First - BIOS scans for any Plug-and-Play ISA
option board installed in slots J3 - J6, starting
with slot J3.
Second - BIOS scans for any Plug-and-Play PCI
option board installed in slots J11 - J7, starting
with slot J11.
Always install option boards in the first available
slot in the scan sequence. As an example, if there
are ISA or EISA option boards installed in slots J3
and J4 of your system and slots J5 and J6 are
vacant, install your Plug-and-Play option board into
slot J5.
