3 Configuration Software and Utilities
This chapter describes the Power-On Self-Test (POST) and server configuration utilities. The table
below briefly describes the utilities.
Table 14. Configuration Utilities
Utility Description and brief procedure Page
BIOS Setup You can move the CMOS jumper on the server board from the default
setting (Protect CMOS memory) to the Clear setting; this will allow most
server configurations to boot. Then run the SSU to configure the
server. 41
System Setup
Utility (SSU) Use for viewing and clearing the system event log, viewing the system
management FRU information, or viewing the system management
SDR repository. 50
FRUSDR Load
Utility Use to update the Field Replacement Unit (FRU), Sensor Data Record
(SDR), and SM BIOS (SMB) flash components. 54
Using the
Adaptec SCSI
Utility Use to configure or view the settings of the SCSI host adapter and
onboard SCSI devices in the server. 59
Using BIOS Setup
This section describes the BIOS Setup options. Use Setup to change the server configuration
defaults. You can run Setup with or without an operating system being present. Setup stores most
of the configuration values in battery backed CMOS; the rest of the values are stored in flash
memory. The values take effect when you boot the server. POST uses these values to configure
the hardware; if the values and the actual hardware do not agree, POST generates an error message.
You must then run Setup to specify the correct configuration.
Recording Your Setup Settings
If the default values ever need to be restored (after a CMOS clear, for example), you must run
Setup again. Referring to the worksheets could make your task easier.
If You Cannot Access Setup
You may need to clear CMOS memory. You will need to open the server, change a jumper setting,
use Setup to check and change the jumper back.
Starting Setup
After rebooting, you will see this prompt:
