EFI Utilities
You can use EFI utilities to configure the SAS Host Bus Adapter on your HP Integrity server.
The utilities are:
• drvcfg (GUI interface)
• cfggen (command line interface)
The drvcfg Configuration Utility
This section describes in detail the available commands and options in the drvcfg utility.
Starting the drvcfg Utility
To start drvcfg, follow these steps:
1. Power on or restart the server.
2. Choose EFI Shell from the console menu.
3. At the EFI shell prompt, enter drvcfg -s and press Enter.
Using the drvcfg Utility
The drvcfg utility uses input keys (F1, F2, Home, End, etc.) that may not be supported by all
terminal emulation programs. Review the terminal emulation program documentation to
determine which input keys are supported. If you have problems using any of the Function keys
or navigation keys, use the alternate keys that are shown at the bottom of each drvcfg screen.
The following Function and navigation keys apply on all drvcfg screens:
F1 Help Context sensitive help for the field in which the cursor is located.
Arrow Keys Select Item - Up, down, left, right movement to position the cursor.
Home/End Select Item - Up, down, left, right movement to position the cursor.
+/- Change Item - Items with values in [brackets] are modifiable. Numeric keypad
+ and numeric keypad - (minus) update a modifiable field to its next relative
value.
Esc Abort/Exit - Aborts the current context operation, or exits the current screen. If
you have changed settings, you will be asked to confirm the exit. If you are
using a serial console, pressing the Esc key causes a delay of several seconds
before it takes effect. This is normal system behavior and is not an error.
Enter Execute <item> - Executable items are indicated by highlighted text and a
different background color. Press Enter to perform the field's function.
