OVERVIEW:

This article provides the procedure for running the Raid
Configuration Utility (RCU) on a character cell terminal.
The procedure below was tested on a VT320 terminal.

PROCEDURE:

Enter setup menu, select display

1.  Terminal Settings:
    o set terminal type VT400-8bit or VT300-8bit.  If you do not
      set the 8bit mode, the cursor keys (arrow keys) will not work.
    o set terminal ID to host to one of the following: VT320, VT330,
      VT420.  These all work.
    o set cursor to NO CURSOR or TEXT CURSOR INVISIBLE (Display Set Up)
      depending on terminal type you have.
    o set cursor keys to normal (Keyboard Set Up)
    o Set the terminal for 9600 baud, 8-bits, no parity

2.  Console Settings:
    >>> set console serial
    >>> set terminal VT320.  No matter what terminal type you have
        set under the terminal settings you must set the console
        terminal to VT320.
    >>> set consolein to all zeros.  Self explaining once you do
        a SHOW consolein.
    >>> set consoleout multi(1), the rest zeros.
    >>> set RCU fat: srlmgr.exe
    >>> set arc_enable on
    >>> initialize
    >>> run rcu -p n (n = PCI slot where RAID controller resides).
        If you do not use the -p n, it will hang right after the
        transferring control message and when you hit any key
        the system will reset.

NOTE:  The KZPSC (PCI-SWXCR controller) is presently being shipped
       with an addendum containing part of the the procedure above
       to assist field engineers with running RCU on the AlphaServer
       8200/8400.
