Configuring
the
Gigabit
Ethernet
controllers
The
Ethernet
controllers
are
integrated
on
the
system
board.
They
provide
an
interface
for
connecting
to
a
10
Mbps,
100
Mbps,
or
1
Gbps
network
and
provide
full-duplex
(FDX)
capability,
which
enables
simultaneous
transmission
and
reception
of
data
on
the
network.
If
the
Ethernet
ports
in
the
server
support
auto-negotiation,
the
controllers
detect
the
data-transfer
rate
(10BASE-T,
100BASE-TX,
or
1000BASE-T)
and
duplex
mode
(full-duplex
or
half-duplex)
of
the
network
and
automatically
operate
at
that
rate
and
mode.
Note:
The
Ethernet
controller
for
Ethernet
connector
1
supports
Serial
over
LAN
(SOL).
You
do
not
have
to
set
any
jumpers
or
configure
the
controllers.
However,
you
must
install
a
device
driver
to
enable
the
operating
system
to
address
the
controllers.
For
device
drivers
and
information
about
configuring
the
Ethernet
controllers,
see
the
Broadcom
NetXtreme
II
Gigabit
Ethernet
Software
CD
that
comes
with
the
server.
To
find
updated
information
about
configuring
the
controllers,
complete
the
following
steps.
Note:
Changes
are
made
periodically
to
the
Lenovo
Web
site.
The
actual
procedure
might
vary
slightly
from
what
is
described
in
this
document.

Using
the
RAID
Configuration
Utility
Use
the
RAID
Configuration
Utility
program
to
configure
and
manage
redundant
array
of
independent
disks
(RAID)
arrays.
Be
sure
to
use
these
programs
as
described
in
this
document.
Consider
the
following
information
when
using
the
RAID
Configuration
Utility
program
to
configure
and
manage
arrays:
v
The
ServeRAID-8k-l
SAS
controller
that
comes
with
the
server
supports
only
RAID
level-0,
level-1,
and
level-10.
You
can
replace
it
with
a
ServeRAID-8k
SAS
controller
that
supports
additional
RAID
levels.
v
Hard
disk
drive
capacities
affect
how
you
create
arrays.
The
drives
in
an
array
can
have
different
capacities,
but
the
ServeRAID
controller
treats
them
as
if
they
all
have
the
capacity
of
the
smallest
hard
disk
drive.
