The SCSI controller chip interfaces the PCI bus to two Ultra3 SCSI buses and contains an onboard
RISC processor. The RISC processor is a fully autonomous device, capable of managing multiple I/O
operations and associated data transfers from start to finish without host intervention. It provides
power management feature support in accordance with the PCI Bus Power Management Interface
Specification.
NOTE The boot order can be changed using the Server's (BIOS) Setup Utility and the
Qlogic SCSI Utility. Refer to Chapter 10, "Configuring the HP Server" for more
information.
