4. Do one of the following, as appropriate:
−
Change the value to Enabled to limit memory use to 2 GB.
−
Change the value to Disabled to use all of the system’s memory.
5. Save the change and exit from BIOS Setup.
6. Restart the system.
You can also reset the BIOS to Optimal to use all of the system’s memory. See the System
Setup document delivered with the system for more information on the system’s BIOS.
NOTE
The System Properties dialog (under Start/Settings/Control Panel/System) shows only 2 GB of
memory on systems with more than 2 GB of memory enabled. To verify the correct amount of
memory, check the Memory tab of the Windows NT Diagnostics dialog (under
Start/Programs/Administrative Tools).
Avoiding System Hangs During Warm Reboot
An InterServe 650 or 660 intermittently hangs when you perform a warm reboot. The hang
occurs if the LCD screen is displaying a system-related menu item, such as processor board
information. To avoid the hang, make sure the LCD screen is displaying RAID menu items
(such as SCSI slot IDs) instead of system menu items. See the System Setup document
delivered with the system for information about using the LCD screen menus.
MegaRAID Controller Assignments
If you install additional RAID controllers in an InterServe 650 or 660, be aware that the RAID
controller scan order is not as described in the InterRAID documentation. The MegaRAID
BIOS Configuration utility and the MegaRAID Power Console program detect the presence of
MegaRAID controllers and assign the controller numbers in dissimilar ways.
The following tables show how Power Console and BIOS Configuration list from one to four
installed MegaRAID controllers when the MegaRAID controller in PCI slot 4 is the boot
device.
