You must turn off the server before you connect or disconnect cables.
See the documentation that comes with any external devices for additional cabling
instructions. It might be easier for you to route cables before you connect the
devices to the server.
Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove a device, you
might receive a message that the configuration has changed. The Setup utility
starts automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings.
Some optional devices have device drivers that you must install. For information
about installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each device.
If the server has an optional RAID adapter and you have installed or removed a
hard disk drive, see the documentation that comes with the RAID adapter for
information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.
The server comes with at least one microprocessor. If more that one microprocessor
is installed, the server can operate as a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) server.
You might have to upgrade the operating system to support SMP. For more
information, see “Typical operating-system installation” on page 115 and the
operating-system documentation.
For information about configuring the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller, see
“Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller” on page 127.
