The Step 4: Examine switches or print report option lists the required switch and jumper settings for each expansion card in your computer. To view the settings, highlight the card and press <Enter>.

Configure Computer Step 5: Save and Exit

The Step 5: Save and exit option allows you to save or cancel the configuration changes you have made. When you select this option, follow the directions on the menu that appears.

If you save your changes, the utility saves the new configuration in your system's NVRAM on the system board and also in a file on the RCU diskette. The utility then automatically reboots the system.

If the changes are cancelled, there will be an option to remain in the utility to make other changes or another to exit the utility without saving any changes.

Maintain System Configuration Diskette

Using the Maintain system configuration diskette option, you can create a backup copy of the .sci file or use a previously saved .sci file to reconfigure your system or to identically configure many other systems. You can also delete .sci files from your RCU diskette or the configuration diskette(s) for any hardware option.

Exit From This Utility

The Exit from this utility option exits the RCU and reboots the server.
