Option ROM Configuration for Arrays Utility
The Option ROM Configuration for Arrays (ORCA) utility is a ROM-based utility for manually
configuring an array on a Smart Array controller.
NOTE: Due to the type of server you purchased, your output may not exactly match the output
shown in this section.
To use ORCA, follow these steps:
1. Power on the server. POST runs, and any array controllers that are in the server are initialized
one at a time. During each controller initialization process, POST halts for several seconds
while an ORCA prompt message appears.
2. At the ORCA prompt:
• If you are connected using a headless console, press the Esc+8 combination.
• Otherwise, press F8. The ORCA Main Menu appears, allowing you to create, view, or
delete a logical drive.
