********************************************************************************* lsimpthelp.txt ********************************************************************************* This file contains information about the LSI Logic EFI 1.1 Fusion-MPT (TM) Boot Services Driver (BSD) and associated Configuration Utility. INTRODUCTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The EFI Fusion-MPT BIOS is a native IA64 EFI 1.1 Boot Services Driver that provides pre-OS support for LSI Logic Corporation's line of Fusion-MPT architecture SCSI and FIbre IO processors. Currently, the LSI53C1020, LSI53C1020A, LSI53C1030, LSIFC919, LSIFC929, LSIFC919X, and LSIFC929X are supported. A Boot Services Driver (BSD) is a BIOS for systems based on Intel Architecture (IA) and the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) Specification The BSD integrates with EFI system firmware, extending disk services by installing Block IO (LBA) for all devices and SCSI Pass Thru interfaces for supported SCSI devices. When a driver is bound to a controller it detects all supported devices. Block IO interfaces are installed for the following devices: hard drives, removable media devices, CD-ROMs, Write-once, andMagneto Optical (MO). Platform firmware can use the driver's services to boot from any supported device. Normally the services are used to copy an OS Loader to boot a system, but the services may also be used by an application or at the EFI Shell. A SCSI Pass Thru interface is installed for all SCSI devices. The BSD includes an integrated Configuration Protocol that provides viewing and editing of static and configurable parameters for supported adapters. The user is provided with the means to view and change the settings stored in the non-volatile memory associated with a controller. The Configuration Protocol is implemented using the EFI Configuration Protocol and can be invoked using the EFI Shell Command "drvcfg". FEATURES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Supports an "unlimited" (256) number of Host Adapter channels (PCI Function). Supports up to (15 Targets X 8 LUNs) per SCSI channel. Supports up to (8 Buses X 128 Targets X 8 LUNs) per Fibre Port. Provides LBA access to device types: hard drives, removable media devices, CD-ROMs, Write-once, and Magneto Optical (MO). "Other" SCSI devices are detected and supported via SCSI Pass Thru. SCSI pass thru is not installed for Fibre devices. Supports media removal and media change for removable media device types. Supports Fusion-MPT Integrated RAID on SCSI controllers. This includes IO and configuration support for IR virtual arrays made up of from two to six disks. Installs the following EFI Protocols for each driver image: o Driver Binding o Component Name o Driver Configuration Installs the following EFI Protocols for each supported SCSI Host Adapter channel: o SCSI Pass Thru Installs the following EFI Protocols for each supported Target/LUN: o Device Path o Block I/O -For details of each protocol implementation, refer to latest the EFI 1.1 specification. BOOT SERVICES DRIVER ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The LSI Logic EFI Boot Services Driver conforms to the EFI 1.1 Driver Model specification. Refer to corresponding EFI 1.1 documentation for further details of this driver model. * * * * * * Installing the Boot Services Driver * * * * * To load the driver, the EFI Shell "load" command can be used. From the EFI shell change to the file system that contains the lsimpt.efi boot services driver file. This is the same as switching to the desired drive in a DOS prompt environment. Once this has been done, use the "load lsimpt.efi" command to load the boot services driver. The boot services driver detects all compatible LSI Logic Fusion-MPT devices and install the necessary EFI protocols for these devices and any compatible devices attached to the bus. The LSI Logic Boot Services Driver can also be loaded from an option rom on board a PCI card. The corresponding "lsimpt.rom" file would be used in this case. This method can be done by loading the lsimpt.rom file onto the flash part using the LSI Logic EFI Flash Utility. Once this is done, if a system supports option rom loading, the LSI Logic driver will be installed by the system at boot time. Once installed, this form of the driver functions identically to the .efi form of the driver. CONFIGURATION UTILITY ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * * * * * * Starting the LSI Logic EFI Setup Utility * * * * * The LSI Logic Boot Services driver includes the LSI Logic EFI Setup Utility. With this Utility you can change the default configuration of your host adapters. You may decide to alter these default values if there is a conflict between device settings or if you need to optimize system performance. The Utility also allows the user to view/configure Integrated RAID arrays on host adapters that support this feature. To make changes with this menu driven utility, one or more LSI Logic host adapters must have NVRAM (Nonvolatile Random Access Memory) to store the changes. The Integrated RAID features will be available on host adapters that have MPT firmware that supports this feature. The Setup utility is invoked using the EFI 1.1. Configuration Protocol. Please refer to the latest EFI 1.1 specification for details of this protocol. To invoke the utility from the EFI shell, the "drvcfg" command can be used. * * * * * * * Using the Setup Utility * * * * * * * * * * * Note about using Setup Utility with Terminal Emulation * * * Please note that the Setup Utility uses several input keys (F1, F2, HOME, END, etc) that may not be supported by all terminal emulation programs. Each of these keys has an alternate key that performs the same function. It is recommended that you check the terminal emulation program documentation to verify which input keys are supported. If problems occur using any of the Function keys or HOME/END/PGUP/PGDN it is recommended that the alternate keys be used. * * * Screen Format * * * All LSI Logic Setup Utility screens are partitioned into the fixed areas. Here is an example: X 0 79 Y ---------------------------------------- 0 | Header Area | ---------------------------------------- 1 | Menu Area | ---------------------------------------- 2 | | | | ...

Press Enter to execute the field's associated function. * * * * * * * * * * * Main Menu * * * * * * * * * * * * When you invoke the LSI Logic EFI Setup Utility, the Main Menu appears. This screen displays a scrolling list of up to 256 LSI Logic host adapters in the system and information about each of them. Use the arrow keys to select an adapter, then press Enter to view and modify the selected adapter's properties (and to gain access to the attached devices). Only adapters with LSI Logic Control enabled can be accessed. After selecting an adapter and pressing Enter, the adapter's bus is scanned and the Adapter Properties screen appears. An example is shown below. To execute an item, select it and press Enter. Here is an example of the Main Menu: |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| | LSI Logic MPT Setup Utility Version vx.xx | | | | | | LSI Logic Host Bus Adapters | | Adapter PCI PCI PCI RAID FW Revision Pro- LSI RAID IRQ | | Bus Dev Fnc Alert duct Control Status | | | | 53C1030 0 1 0 None 1.03.00.00 IME Enabled Optimal 10 | | 53C1030 0 2 1 ----- 1.03.00.00 IME Enabled ----- 12 | | 53C1030 0 3 0 ----- 1.03.07.00 IO Enabled ----- 7 | | 53C1030 0 3 1 ----- 1.03.07.00 IO Enabled ----- 7 | | LSI929X 0 5 0 ----- 1.01.00.00 FC Enabled ----- 3 | | LSI929X 0 5 1 ----- 1.01.00.00 FC Enabled ----- 3 | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------| * * * Field Descriptions * * * Adapter Unique identifier and PCI Address of an adapter. An adapter's Adapter Properties menu is invoked by selecting the desired adapter and pressing the Enter key. PCI Bus The PCI Bus number (0x00-0xFF) assigned by the System BIOS to an adapter. PCI Dev The PCI Device number (0x00-0x1F) assigned by the System BIOS to an adapter. PCI Func The PCI Function number (0-7) assigned by the System BIOS to an adapter. RAID Alert Indicates whether an invalid or non-optimal RAID condition exists that requires user resolution (None, ERROR). None indicates that no alert condition exists. ERROR indicates that an invalid or non-optimal RAID array condition exists. Alert conditions include: - the active array is not optimal and is not synchronizing - multiple arrays were detected. The user must enter the RAID Properties screen to view the details and resolve the error. FW The version, in decimal, of the Fusion-MPT Firmware that is Revision running on an adapter. Product Indicates the capabilities of the Fusion MPT firmware (IO,IME,IS,IT, or T). IO: Fusion MPT firmware has basic Initiator capabilities only. IME: Fusion MPT firmware has Integrated Mirroring Enhanced capability. IS: Fusion MPT firmware has Integrated Striping capability. IT: Fusion MPT firmware has Initiator/Target capability. T: Fusion MPT firmware has Target capability (not supported). FC: Fusion MPT firmware for Fibre Channel. LSI Indicates whether an adapter is eligible for LSI Logic software Control control or is reserved for control by non-LSI Logic software (Enabled, Disabled, Forbidden). Enabled indicates the driver is either currently controlling the adapter or will attempt to control the adapter upon reload. Disabled indicates the driver is either not controlling the adapter or will discontinue control of the adapter upon reload. Whether Enabled or Disabled, the user will still be able to view and modify settings for the adapter. The Boot Support setting in the Adapter Properties menu can be used to change the status of this setting. The driver must be reloaded (e.g., system rebooted) in order for a new Boot Support setting to take effect. Forbidden indicates no access to the controller is available because a different driver is controlling the adapter or there was an error initializing the adapter. RAID If a RAID array exists, this field indicates the status of the Status array (Optimal, Degraded, Disabled, Quiesced, xx% Syncd, Failed, Inactive). The RAID Properties screen can be accessed to investigate the statuses. IRQ Indicates the Interrupt Request Line, in decimal, that was assigned to the adapter by the System BIOS. * * * * * * * * * SCSI Adapter Properties * * * * * * * * * * The Adapter Properties Menu allows you to view and modify adapter settings. It also provides access to an adapter's device settings. Here is an example of the Adapter Properties Menu: |--------------------------------------------------------------| | LSI Logic MPT Setup Utility Version vx.xx | | | | Adapter Properties | | | | Adapter PCI PCI PCI | | Bus Dev Fnc | | 53C1030 0 3 0 | | | | <Device Properties> | | <RAID Properties> | | | | Boot Support [Enabled BIOS & OS] | | Host SCSI ID [ 7] | | Secondary Cluster Server [No] | | Termination Control [Auto] | | | | <Restore Defaults> | |--------------------------------------------------------------| * * * Field Descriptions * * * <Device Properties> Press Enter to view and modify device properties. <RAID Properties> Press Enter to invoke the adapter's RAID Properties menu. This field is grayed out under the following conditions: - the adapter's MPT FW does not support the feature - the setup is not compatible with IME feature, such as an array exists on the other channel of a dual-channel adapter. Boot Support Specifies whether an adapter is eligible for LSI Logic software control or is reserved for control by non-LSI Logic software (Enabled BIOS & OS, Enabled BIOS Only, Enabled OS Only, Disabled, default: Enabled BIOS & OS). If Enabled BIOS & OS, then both the driver and OS driver will control the adapter. If Enabled BIOS Only, then the adapter will be controlled by the driver, but OS drivers will not control it. This setting may not be supported by all OS drivers, for example there is no means to disable an adapter in a Windows driver. If Enabled OS Only, then the driver will not control the adapter but the OS driver will control the adapter. If Disabled, then the driver will not control the adapter when loaded. However, the adapter will still be visible through the Configuration Protocol. Changes to this setting will be reflected in the LSI Control field on the main Adapter List menu. The new setting will not take effect until the driver is reloaded (e.g., system rebooted). Host SCSI ID Specifies the SCSI Target identifier of the adapter (0-15, default 7). It is recommended that this field be set to the highest priority SCSI identifier, which is 7. Note: 8-bit SCSI devices cannot see identifiers greater than 7. Secondary Cluster Server Specifies whether an adapter has one or more attached devices that are shared with other adapter(s) (Yes, No, default No). If Yes, the driver will avoid SCSI Bus resets as much as possible. Reducing SCSI Bus Resets will optimize performance in a multi-initiator shared-bus environment. It is recommended that this field be set to Yes in multi-initiator configurations. This setting is a requirement for Microsoft Cluster Server. If No, the driver is free to perform SCSI Bus Resets as needed. Termination Control Specifies whether an adapter has automatic termination control, and if so, its current status (Auto, Off, default: Auto). If Auto, the adapter automatically determines whether it should enable or disable its termination. If Off, termination at the adapter is off - the devices at the ends of the SCSI bus must terminate the bus. This field is grayed out when termination is automatic, not programmable. The ability to modify this setting is determined by the GPIO settings that are programmed into SEEPROM. To enable the termination setting the SEEPROM data image must be updated specifying the GPIO pin to use for termination control. Refer to MPT documentation for details. Restore Defaults Press Enter to restore default settings. * * * * * * * * * Fibre Adapter Properties * * * * * * * * * * The Adapter Properties Menu allows you to view and modify adapter settings. It also provides access to an adapter's device settings.

Controllers WWNode Name Displays the World Wide Node name for this controller. Controllers WWPort Name Displays the World Wide Port name for this controller. Boot Support Specifies whether an adapter is eligible for LSI Logic software control or is reserved for control by non-LSI Logic software (Enabled BIOS & OS, Enabled BIOS Only, Enabled OS Only, Disabled, default: Enabled BIOS & OS). If Enabled BIOS & OS, then both the driver and OS driver will control the adapter. If Enabled BIOS Only, then the adapter will be controlled by the driver, but OS drivers will not control it. This setting may not be supported by all OS drivers, for example there is no means to disable an adapter in a Windows driver. If Enabled OS Only, then the driver will not control the adapter but the OS driver will control the adapter. If Disabled, then the driver will not control the adapter when loaded. However, the adapter will still be visible through the Configuration Protocol. Changes to this setting will be reflected in the LSI Control field on the main Adapter List menu. The new setting will not take effect until the driver is reloaded (e.g., system rebooted). Link Configuration Determines whether the port will set itself to the selected link speed or auto-negotiate instead. (1Gig, 2Gig, Auto, default Auto) Topology Configuration Determines whether the port will default to N-Port or NL-Port operation, or auto-detect the link topology. (N-Port, NL-Port, Auto, default Auto) Multi-Pathing This field is used to enable/disable Multi Pathing to devices found on the controller. (Yes, No, default No). Persistent ID Type This field is used to set the Persistent Mapping Type to WWN or DID. The Persistent ID Type is used to determine what type of mappings are displayed or may be entered on the Persistent IDs screen. Hard ALPA This field identifies the Hard ALPA value that the user has assigned to the controller. Restore Defaults Press Enter to restore default settings. * * * * * * * RAID Properties * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The RAID Properties screen initially comes up listing all possible SCSI IDs on the Adapter SCSI Channel. This allows the user to select disks on this channel to be members of a Mirrored array. Mirroring provides protection against data loss by keeping two copies of the data stored on separate disks. This screen only applies to SCSI controllers. Here is an example of the RAID properties screen: |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | LSI Logic MPT Setup Utility Version vx.xx | | | | RAID Properties Array: -- SCSI ID: -- Size(MB): ------ | | | | SCSI Device Identifier Array Hot Status Predict Size | | ID Disk?

This type has two members(not including hot spare). -1E is a striped layout with each stripe unit having a secondary(or alternate) copy stored on a different disk. This type is used when there are more than two active members in RAID array. -IS is a striped layout with NO mirroring or secondary copy usage. This type can have 2 to 6 active disks in the array. NOTE: The firmware that supports IM/1E features does not support IS. The same restriction applies to IS firmware, it doesn't support IM/IE features. SCSI ID: The SCSI ID that the Operating system or application addresses the array. Size(MB): Size of the array. Array Disk? Specifies the SCSI devices (disks) that make up a RAID array (Yes, No, default NO). If Yes, the device is part of a RAID array. If No, the device is not part of a RAID array. This field is grayed out under the following conditions: - the device does not meet the minimum requirements for use in a RAID array - the device is not large enough to mirror existing data on the primary drive - this disk has been selected as the Hot Spare for the RAID array - the array is made up of the maximum number of devices (6) Hot Spare Specifies whether a SCSI device is the Hot Spare for a RAID array (Yes, No, default NO). If Yes, the device will be used as a Hot Spare for the RAID array. If No, the device will not be used as a Hot Spare for the RAID array. Notes: - Only one Hot Spare per RAID array is permitted. - RAID Arrays do not require a Hot Spare. - A Hot Spare can be specified at array creation or any time after creation provided the array is made up of 5 disks or fewer. This field is grayed out under the following conditions: - the device does not meet the minimum requirements for use in a RAID array - the array already has a Hot Spare - the device is not large enough to mirror existing data on the primary drive - Integrated Striping Firmware is used. IS does not support Hot Spares. Status Field displays current status of disks that are part of a RAID array. For devices that are not in an Array, field may display help info. Ok Disk is online and fully functional Missing Disk is not responding Failed Disk has failed Initing Disk is initializing CfgOffline Disk is offline at host's request UserFailed Disk is marked failed at host's request Offline Disk is offline for some other reason Inactive Disk has been set inactive Out of Sync Data on disk is not synchronized with the rest of the array Primary Disk is the primary disk for a 2 disk mirrored array and is OK Secondary Disk is the seconday disk for a 2 disk mirrored array & is OK Incompatbl Device is not compatible for use as part of an RAID Array Too Small Disk is too small to mirror existing data Max # Dsks Maximum # of disks allowed for this type of Array reached Not Valid Disk doesn't support SMART and cannot be used in an RAID Array Qtag/Dis Device has Qtags or Disconnects Disabled Predict Failure Indicates whether device SMART is predicting device failure (Yes, No). Size Indicates the size of the device in megabytes (where a megabyte is (1024 x 1024) = 1,048,576). If the device is part of a two-disk array, this field will reflect the size of the array - not the size of the individual disk. If the device is part of a three or more disk array, this field is the size that the disk makes up within the array. Array Creation for IM/1E i) First Disk The first disk that is selected for a array will prompt for confirmation as to whether the data on the disk should be retained. Retaining the data on the primary disk (F3/Shift+3) implies that a two-disk mirrored array is being created. Data on the primary disk cannot be retained in any other configuration, since data migration to a three or more disk array is not supported. If Delete is selected, data on all disks selected for the array will be erased (FW performs low-level initialization). Delete should be specified for 1E array or if the user does not want to retain the data for a two-disk mirror. ii) Subsequent Disks If creating a two-disk array, other disks will have this field grayed out after two disks are selected. If creating a 1E array, other disks will have this field grayed after 6 disks are selected. iii) Commit Once all disks to make up a array have been selected press Escape. This will present an opportunity to save/commit the operation or return to the RAID Properties screen. If save is selected, the array will be created by the MPT Firmware, during this time the processing screen will be displayed. Array Creation for IS Select the disks that will be in the array by changing the Array Disk field to "Yes". NOTE: If the first disk that is selected gets changed back to "No" from "Yes", all other disks will be switched back to "No" as well. (This functionality is the same as in the IM/1E creation) When there are one or more existing arrays present the user will see the following screen: |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | LSI Logic MPT Setup Utility Version vx.xx | | | | RAID Array 1 of 1 | | | | SCSI Size Status Modify Sync Activate Delete Next | | ID (MB) Array | | | | 1 26097 Optimal <Modify> <Sync> <Activate> <Delete> <Next> | | | | | | ============================================================================= | | Disks in array: LSILOGIC IS10000 | | | | SCSI Device Identifier Array Hot Status Predict Size | | ID Disk?

Size(MB): Size of the array. Status The status of the RAID array (Optimal, Degraded, Disabled, Quiesced, xx% Syncd, Failed, Inactive). <Modify> Press enter to modify array configuration. This field is grayed out under the following conditions: - the array is inactive - the array is at its maximum number of devices and does not contain a Hot Spare - IS array is displayed. Since IS doesn't support hot spares no modifications can be made. <Sync> Press enter to synchronize the RAID array. This field is grayed out under the following conditions: - the array is inactive - the array does not need to be resynchronized - the adapter's MPT FW does not support the feature - IS array is displayed. IS doesn't require synchronization. <Activate Array> This field is used to activate a RAID array. This field is grayed out if there is currently an active RAID array on the adapter. If there are multiple inactive arrays on a physical adapter, this option allows the user to tell the RAID firmware which array should be made active. <Delete Array> This field is used to delete the currently displayed RAID array. <Next Array> Press enter to access the next array of a multi-array configuration. This field is grayed out if there is only one RAID array. This choice is enabled for an illegal configuration situation where there is more than one array on this physical adapter. The RAID Properties screen allows display of one array at a time. This choice allows the user to display and operate on next array found. * * * * * * * * * * SCSI Device Properties * * * * * * * * * * The Device Properties screen provides viewing and updating of individual device settings for an adapter. Changing a setting for the host device (for example, SCSI ID 7) changes the setting for all devices.

Device Identifier This field indicates the ASCII device identifier string extracted from the device's Inquiry Data. MB/sec Specifies the maximum synchronous data transfer rate, in Mega Bytes per second. Values range from 0 (async/narrow) to 320 for Ultra 320. This field is not directly changeable by the user, but will be updated when Data Width or MT/Sec fields are changed. The default for this field is 320 MB/Sec. MT/sec This field indicates the maximum synchronous data transfer rate, in Mega Transfers per second. Mega Transfers/ Data Data Synchronous Second Width= 8 Width=16 Period nsec Mbytes/s Mbytes/s --------------- -------- -------- ----------- 0=Async 0=Async 0=Async 0=Async 5 5 10 200 10 10 20 100 20 20 40 50 40 40 80 25 80 80 160 12.5 160 160 320 6.25 The default value will be 160 MT/Sec. Data Width This field indicates the maximum data width in bits. Possible values are 8 or 16. The default value for this field is 16. Scan ID This field indicates whether to scan for this SCSI identifier at boot time. This item can be used to ignore a device and to decrease boot time by disabling the inquiry of unused SCSI identifiers. Set this option to "No" if there is a device that you do not want to be available to the system. Also, on a bus with only a few devices attached, the user can speed up boot time by changing this setting to "No" for all unused SCSI IDs. The default value for this field is Yes. Scan LUNs > 0 This field indicates whether to scan for LUNs greater than zero for a device. LUN zero is always queried. This option should be used if a multi-LUN device responds to unoccupied LUNs or if it is desired to reduce the visibility of a multi-LUN device to LUN zero only. Set this option to "No" if you have problems with a device that responds to all LUNs whether they are occupied or not. Also, if a SCSI device with multiple LUNs exists on your system but you do not want all of those LUNs to be available to the system, then set this option to "No." This will limit the scan to LUN 0 only. The default for this field is Yes. Disconnect This field indicates whether to allow a device to disconnect during SCSI operations. Some (mostly newer) devices run faster with disconnect enabled(On), while some (mostly older) devices run faster with disconnect disabled(Off). NOTE: For Integrated Raid arrays this field is not modifiable. The default for this field is On. SCSI Timeout This field indicates the maximum amount of time [0 to 255] in seconds to wait for a SCSI operation to complete. Since timeouts provide a safeguard that allows the system to recover should an operation fail, it is recommended that a value greater than zero be used. A value of zero allows unlimited time for an operation to complete and could result in the system hanging (waiting forever) should an operation fail. Press Enter, type in a value, and then press Enter again to specify a new timeout value. The default value for this field is 10 seconds. Queue Tags This field indicates whether to allow the use of queue tags for a device. Currently the Boot Services Driver does not use queue tags. This item specifies queue tag control to higher level device drivers. Possible values are On or Off. NOTE: For Integrated Raid arrays this field is not modifiable. The default for this field is On. Format Press Enter to low-level format the device. If enabled, this option allows low-level formatting on a disk drive. Low-level formatting will completely and irreversibly erase all data on the drive. NOTE: For Integrated Raid arrays this field can not be selected. Note: Formatting will default the drive to a 512-byte sector size even if the drive had previously been formatted to another sector size. Verify Press Enter to verify all sectors on the device and to reassign defective Logical Block Addresses (LBAs). NOTE: For Integrated Raid arrays this field can not be selected .

Typ Displays whether the entry specifies a valid WWN or DID number. WWN (or DID) Displays and allows the user to enter a valid WWN or DID number. To enter a WWN or DID value, move the cursor to this field and press enter. The field will then allow the entry of the hexidecimal value that designate the WWN or DID value. For WWN values the user should enter the World Wide Node Name first, hit enter and then enter the World Wide Port Name. A final press of the enter key will save the value. For DID values the user can enter the entire value at once. Pressing the enter key at any time will save the value. If an incorrect value is entered, the <Erase> option can be used to remove the value. Bus The SCSI bus number reserved for the entry. The max bus value is limited by the amount of memory on the controller. (0-7) TID The SCSI target id reserved for the entry. (0-127) Scan ID This field indicates whether to scan for this SCSI identifier at boot time. This item can be used to ignore a device and to decrease boot time by disabling the inquiry of unused SCSI identifiers. Set this option to "No" if there is a device that you do not want to be available to the system. The default value for this field is Yes. Scan LUNs > 0 This field indicates whether to scan for LUNs greater than zero for a device. LUN zero is always queried. This option should be used if a multi-LUN device responds to unoccupied LUNs or if it is desired to reduce the visibility of a multi-LUN device to LUN zero only. Set this option to "No" if you have problems with a device that responds to all LUNs whether they are occupied or not. Also, if a device with multiple LUNs exists on your system but you do not want all of those LUNs to be available to the system, then set this option to "No." This will limit the scan to LUN 0 only. The default for this field is Yes. <Erase> This function will erase the selected entry. The erase takes place immediately. <Restore> This function will restore the selected entry. The restore takes place immediately. <Add DID> This function will add/replace the current entry with a DID one specified by the user. <Add WWN> This function will add/replace the current entry with a WWN one specified by the user. <Defaults> Press Enter to obtain default settings. * * * * * * Quitting the Setup Utility * * * * * * Since some changes only take effect after your system reboots, it is important that you exit this setup utility properly.
