PCI Bus Control



PCI Bus Control


Select this choice to manually assign the interrupt requests (IRQs) for PCI adapters installed in the server, and for the SCSI and Ethernet controllers on the system board.

You can also enable the generation of a non-maskable interrupt (NMI) when a PCI data parity error occurs.

If an adapter requires a memory address in the C8000 to CFFFF (hexadecimal) range, the memory address of the server's SCSI ROM must be changed. Select SCSI ROM Address to assign an alternate address.

To enable or disable the CPU to PCI write posting, select CPU-PCI Write Buffers.

Select Exit Setup to exit from the Configuration/Setup utility programs Main Menu then, press Enter.

The system prompts you to confirm your choice. If you want to make additional changes, you can return to the Setup Utility. If you made any changes and did not save them with the Save Settings choice, the system prompts you to save or discard the changes before exiting the Configuration/Setup utility programs.

After configuring the server, you can save the CMOS and NVRAM configuration data to a diskette. This is useful in case you have to clear CMOS or have to replace the system board, and want to restore the existing configuration.

Refer to the README file on the PC Server Utilities Diskette for specific procedures on backing up and restoring CMOS and NVRAM configuration data.
