Resolving Configuration Conflicts (Server 330)
Resolving Configuration Conflicts
The resources used by the server consist of IRQs, DMA, I/O ports addresses and memory.
This information is useful when a resource configuration conflict occurs.
Conflicts in the configuration occur if:
- A device is installed that requires the same resource as another device.
(for example, when two adapters try to write to the same address space.)
- A device resource is changed. (For example, changing jumper settings.)
- A device function is changed. (For example, assigning COM1 to two serial ports.)
- A software program is installed that requires the same resource as a hardware device.
The steps required to resolve a configuration error are determined by the number and variety of
hardware devices and software (driver) programs installed. If a hardware configuration error is detected, a configuration error message
appears after the server completes POST and before the operating system is loaded. You can bypass the error by pressing Esc while
the error message is displayed.
The Configuration/Setup utility program configures the system hardware and PCI interrupt requests. The program does not consider
the requirements of the operating system or the application programs. See 'Resolving Software Configuration Conflicts' for
additional information.
