Configuring the System
When installing a controller in a new system, perform these tasks after installing the
controller 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 on which it is installed. RBSU is updated by using System
ROMPaq.
IMPORTANT: Not all servers support RBSU.
To use RBSU:
1. Power up the server.
