Starting the Configuration/Setup Utility program
To start the Configuration/Setup Utility program, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the server.
2. When the prompt
Press F1 for Configuration/Setup
is displayed, press F1. If
you have set both a power-on password and an administrator password, you
must type the administrator password to access the full Configuration/Setup
Utility menu. If you do not type the administrator password, a limited
Configuration/Setup Utility menu is available.
3. Select settings to view or change.
Configuration/Setup Utility menu choices
The following choices are on the Configuration/Setup Utility main menu. Depending
on the version of the BIOS code, some menu choices might differ slightly from
these descriptions.
v
System Summary
Select this choice to view configuration information, including the type, speed,
and cache size of the microprocessor and the amount of installed memory. When
you make configuration changes through other choices in the Configuration/Setup
Utility program, the changes are reflected in the system summary; you cannot
change settings directly in the system summary.
This choice is on the full and limited Configuration/Setup Utility menu.
v
System Information
Select this choice to view information about the server, such as the machine type
and model of the server, the serial number, the system UUID, the system board
identifier, and the revision level or issue date of the BIOS code. When you make
changes through other choices in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, some
of those changes are reflected in the system information; you cannot change
settings directly in the system information.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only.
v
Devices and I/O Ports
Select this choice to view or change assignments for devices and input/output
(I/O) ports, to configure remote console redirection, to enable or disable
integrated Ethernet controllers and all standard ports (such as serial and USB),
and to view the system MAC addresses. If you disable a device, it cannot be
configured, and the operating system will not be able to detect it (this is
equivalent to disconnecting the device). If you disable the integrated Ethernet
controllers and no Ethernet adapter is installed, the server will have no Ethernet
capability.
For a SATA model, you can also select this choice to view or change the
interface mode for a SATA port. To view or change the mode, select
Programming Interface for a SATA Port .
– Native mode: Standard PCI resource steering is used.
– Combined mode: Native mode plus legacy mode is used. In legacy mode,
standard IDE I/O and IRQ resources (IRQ 14 and 15) are assigned.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only.
v Date and Time
Select this choice to set the date and time in the server, in 24-hour format
(
