Using the Client System Setup Utility  
Remote System Setup  
System functions for managed servers can be setup remotely, using the Client System Setup  
Utility. The Server System Setup Utility runs on the server console and provides all of the  
necessary setup functions. The Client System Setup Utility provides the tools to do the same  
functions remotely:  
Assign resources to devices and add-in boards before loading the OS,  
Specify boot device order and system security options,  
View and clear the system event log (SEL),  
View the system field replaceable unit records (FRUs) and sensor data records (SDRs),  
Troubleshoot the server when the OS is not operational,  
View the server system-level I/O devices,  
Save and restore the system configuration.  
The tools are implemented as plug-in Active-X controls called add-ins. The specific  
functions provided will vary with individual platforms.

When to Run the Client System Setup Utility  
Use the Client SSU when you need to do any of these tasks remotely:  
Add and remove boards affecting the assignment of resources (ports, memory, IRQs, DMA)  
Modify the server’s boot device order or security settings  
Change the server's configuration settings  
Save the server configuration  
View or clear the SEL  
View FRU information  
View the SDR information  
To determine a system configuration, the Client SSU uses the following information from the  
server system:  
The baseboard CFG file  
Configuration registers  
CMOS and non-volatile storage  
The Client SSU stores configuration values in flash memory in the server. These values take effect  
when you boot the server.

Intel Client System Setup Utility  
Version 0.8  
The BIOS checks the values against the actual hardware configuration; if the values do not agree,  
the BIOS generates an error message. You must then run the Client SSU to specify the correct  
configuration before the server boots.  
The Client SSU always includes a checksum with the configuration data, so the BIOS can detect  
any potential data corruption before the actual hardware configuration occurs.

Using the Phonebook  
The Phonebook Dialog  
The Client SSU includes a phonebook—which is shared with other ISC components—to organize  
dialing information needed to establish connections with supported platforms. Use the phonebook  
when the Client SSU is run outside of an enterprise management console, or when the Client SSU  
is unable to make a server connection when started within an enterprise management console. The  
dialog box used to maintain existing or edit new phonebook entries is shown in the following  
figure.  
You can open the phonebook from the Main Menu, using the  
choosing Server>Phonebook.

Server Name  
The Server Name area provides an alphabetized list of server platforms that the Client SSU may  
attempt to connect to. The list is based upon information maintained in the phonebook.  
OK Button  
The OK button attempts to establish a connection with the specified server platform. When  
selected, the OK button prompts for an EMP password and if successful reboots the server to the  
service partition and attempts to establish the connection with the server SSU. If the connection  
cannot be established an error message displays and the server system should be rebooted to its  
primary operating system using the DPC. While the connection is being established the Client  
SSU displays connection information on the status bar.  
Cancel  
The Cancel button closes the connection dialog and returns to the Main Window.

Configuring Resources  
The Resource Configuration Add-in (RCA) provides two major functions:  
Modifying the contents of the system by adding and removing devices  
Modifying the resources used by devices  
The Resource Configuration Add-in (RCA) provides the resource conflict detection and resolution  
services. Its purpose is to help create a working configuration after adding or removing hardware  
from the system. Only a single instance of the RCA may be used at one time.  
RCA Main Window  
The RCA presents a main window that supports several features, which are described in the  
following sections.

Devices  
It may be necessary to modify the resources of a device to accommodate certain operating systems,  
applications, and drivers. It may also be necessary to modify resources to resolve a conflict. To  
modify the resources associated with a device, highlight the device in the Devices list box and  
double-click on the entry.

Save to System Button  
The Save to System option writes the current configuration to non-volatile storage on the server  
system. The stored configuration information is used by the servers BIOS to configure the  
platform during power-up.  
Although the RCA can be started multiple times during a Client SSU session, it is recommended  
that the managed server be rebooted once the ‘Save To System’ operation is performed.  
Configuration changes to PCI devices will not be recognized during subsequent RCA uses unless  
the managed server is rebooted.  
Close Button  
The Close option exits the RCA. Although no configuration information is automatically written to  
non-volatile storage with this selection, you will be prompted to save any outstanding changes  
before exiting.  
Device Window  
It may be necessary to modify the resources of a device to accommodate certain operating systems,  
applications, and drivers. The Device Window provides several features to aid in this process.

Function  
Use the Function tree to select a device function so that the configuration choices and resources  
associated with the function may be updated. Selecting a new function updates the Choice box and  
the DMA, IRQ, Memory, and Ports list boxes as required. Some functions may not contain choices  
or resources and are simply used for grouping or organizational purposes.  
Choice  
The Choice area shows a list of configuration choices associated with the current function. Change  
choices by selecting the desired option. Selecting a new choice may update the DMA, IRQ,  
Memory, and Ports list boxes.  
DMA  
Use the DMA list box to change an existing setting of a DMA resource associated with the current  
choice. DMA resources can be changed by double-clicking the desired entry and updating the  
DMA entry in the Change DMA window. If a DMA resource is not required for the current  
choice, N/A is displayed as the only item in the DMA list box.  
IRQ  
Use the IRQ list box to change an existing setting of a IRQ resource associated with the current  
choice. Change the resource by double-clicking the desired entry and updating the IRQ entry in the  
Change IRQ window. If an IRQ resource is not required for the current choice, N/A is displayed as  
the only item in the IRQ list box.

The Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) inventory records contain information about the components  
that comprise the remote server. The information, based on the Intelligent Peripheral Management  
Interface (IPMI) specification, includes such things as part numbers, serial numbers,  
manufacturer’s names, version numbers, and asset tag numbers.  
The contents of the FRU inventory files will help you to identify components that may be of  
interest while troubleshooting a system failure. Using the FRU, you can

exists, you’ll see a status message to tell you that the FRU inventory records are loading. If no  
server is connected, then you'll see a connect dialog.  
Starting the FRU Manager adds an FRU menu to the toolbar, which you can use to see the FRU  
properties or reload the FRU Manager.  
The FRU Manager displays a hierarchical tree of FRU components, and detailed inventory  
information for each selected unit. Highlight a component in the tree with the mouse to see its  
associated inventory information.
