Activating the Dell PERC 3/Di 1-1

Activating the Integrated RAID Controller

This document explains how to activate your Dell™ system’s PowerEdge™ expandable

RAID controller 3/Di (PERC 3/Di). Your upgrade kit includes a RAID controller memory

module, RAID hardware key, RAID battery, and RAID software.

WARNING: Before you perform this procedure, you must turn off the system and

disconnect it from its electrical outlet. For more information, see “Safety

First—For You and Your Computer” in your system’s

Installation and

Troubleshooting Guide

NOTICE: To avoid possible data loss, back up all data on the hard-disk drives before changing

the mode of operation of the integrated SCSI controller from SCSI to RAID.

CAUTION: See “Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge” in the safety

instructions in your

System Information

document.

1Open the system doors.

See “Opening the System Doors” in your system Installation and

Troubleshooting Guide.

2Open the ejectors on the RAID controller memory module socket by pressing down

and outward, which allows you to insert the memory module into the socket.

See Figure 1-1 for the location of the socket on the system board.

3Align the memory module's edge connector with the slot in the center of the memory

module socket, and insert the memory module into the socket (see Figure 1-2).

The memory module socket has two alignment keys that allow you to install the

memory module in the socket in only one way.

NOTE: The RAID controller memory module must be an unbuffered memory module, rated

to run at 100 MHz or faster. Do not substitute registered memory modules such as those

used for system memory.

4Press the memory module with your thumbs while pulling the ejectors with your index

fingers to lock the memory module into the socket (see Figure 1-2).

Figure 1-2. Installing a Memory Module

5Examine the RAID hardware key (see Figure 1-3) to ensure that it is labeled for your

system.

Hardware keys intended for use in other systems will not enable the RAID controller.

6If the key is the correct type, install the key in its socket on the system board

(see Figure 1-1) and secure the key with the latches on each end of the socket

(see Figure 1-3).

8Connect the battery cable to the RAID battery connector on the system board

(see Figure 1-1).

9Close the system doors, reconnect the system and peripherals to their electrical

outlets, and turn them on.

10 Enter the System Setup program and verify that the setting for the SCSI controller has

changed to reflect the presence of the RAID hardware.

See “Changing the System Setup Settings.”

11 Install the RAID software.

For more information, see the RAID controller documentation.

Changing the System Setup Settings

1Turn on your system.

If your system is already turned on, shut the system down and then turn it on again.

2Press <F2> immediately after you see the following message:

Press <F2> for System Setup

If you wait too long and your operating system begins to load into memory, allow the

system to complete the load operation, and then shut down the system and try again.

NOTE: To ensure an orderly system shutdown, see the documentation that accompanied

your operating system.

3Press <Alt><p> to switch to Page 2 of the System Setup screen.

• If the system detects the new RAID controller memory module and RAID

hardware key, the system displays the RAID option in the Integrated Devices

section of the screen.

• If the system displays the SCSI option, it did not detect the integrated RAID

controller. Ensure that the RAID hardware key and RAID memory module are the

correct type and repeat all hardware installation steps found earlier in this

document.

NOTICE: To avoid possible data loss, back up all data on the hard-disk drives before changing

the mode of operation of the integrated SCSI controller from SCSI to RAID.
