Setting the Controller Order

After installing the controller hardware and updating the controller firmware:

• Configure the system by using either the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) or

the System Configuration Utility (SCU), following the procedure given in the
server user guide.

• Set the boot controller by using RBSU or the Option ROM Configuration for

Arrays (ORCA) utility (described in this chapter).

• Create at least one logical drive by using ORCA or ACU (as described in

Chapter 7).

Using RBSU

RBSU is a system configuration utility that is embedded in the system ROM, and is
customized for the server that it is installed on. Update RBSU when necessary by
using System ROMPaq.

CAUTION: Not all servers support RBSU. Do not flash an RBSU-ROM image onto a
server that is already configured with SCU unless the update instructions specifically
state that upgrading from SCU to RBSU is supported. If the upgrade is not
supported, the consequences of upgrading are unpredictable and you may lose data.
