Chapter 3 System Setup
This chapter introduces how to configure BIOS. All operations described in
this section are only limited to operators or administrators with system maintenance
qualification.
3.1 System BIOS setup
BIOS is a basic input and output system. The system parameters and hardware
parameters can be adjusted through special setup procedure. BIOS has a great impact
on the system booting and running, setting parameters improperly may cause conflicts
among hardware resources, or degrade the system running performance. Hence
understanding the BIOS setup is significant to the configuration of your server. If
no especial requirement, you are suggested to use the default value and not alter the
parameters arbitrarily.
1. Before changing the BIOS setup, please record the corresponding original
setup. Hence when there are operating problems in the system due to the option
altered, the setup can revert.
2. Ordinarily the factory default settings are the optimal settings. Don’t try to
alter the parameters before you understand their denotations.
3. The common settings are introduced in detail in this chapter. The less
referred options during using are simply explained or not.
4. The BIOS content varies according to different configurations of the
products; hence the detailed introduction is elided.
