Configuration Prompts/Vendor-Specific Questions
[STORPORT.CONFIGURATION]

Note: You must remove or comment out the entire [STORPORT.CONFIGURATION]

section for an unattended installation.

A [STORPORT.CONFIGURATION] section may exist in the AutoPilot configuration

file. The first items in this section are the driver parameters to be used regardless of

how the questions are answered. This is followed by a subsection that contains

questions (these may be vendor-specific questions). A line containing '[QUESTIONS]'

marks the start of the subsection, and the end of it is marked by a line containing

'[ENDQUESTIONS]'. Within the question subsection there can be as many questions as

needed. Each question uses the format:

question= “question?”, “explanation”, “answer0”, “answer1”,

“answer2”,.... , “answern”

Where:

“question?” contains the text of the question to be asked.

“explanation” contains brief text to help explain the question. The explanation

appears below the question in a smaller font. If there is no explanatory text,

empty quotes must be used in its place.

“answer0” contains the 1st answer to be displayed in the drop down list.

“answer1” contains the 2nd answer to be displayed in the drop down list.

“answern” contains the nth answer to be displayed in the drop down list.

For each question there can be as many answers as needed. For each answer there must

be a corresponding “answer =” section with its corresponding driver parameters listed

beneath it. The answer uses the format:

answer = 0

DriverParameter="Param1=value; Param2=value;"

answer = 1

DriverParameter="Param1=value; Param2=value;"

....

answer = n

DriverParameter="Param1=value; Param2=value;"
