Setting Up the System
IMPORTANT:
!
If the power cord is connected to a power control device such as
a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), make sure that the power
control device is powered.
!
The server management logic on your system board monitors
and logs system voltage changes. When plugging the power
cord to the system, you may experience a 10 second delay from
the time you press the POWER switch on the front panel to the
time the unit powers up. This is normal system operation and is
required by the server management logic.
!
Do not turn off the server until characters following logo screen
appear.
POST
POST (Power-On Self-Test) is the server's self-diagnostic program stored in the
system BIOS.
When you power on the server, the system automatically runs POST to check
the mother board, ECC memory module, CPU module, keyboard, and mouse.
POST also displays messages of the BIOS SETUP utility, such as the start-up
message, while in progress.
With the factory setup of the server, the logo screen appears on the display unit
while POST is in progress. (To display the POST check results, press
Esc
.)
Note:
You can set the POST check results to appear on the display
unit without pressing
Esc
. To do so, select "Enabled" for "Boot-time
Diagnostic Screen" under the Advanced menu of the BIOS SETUP utility.
You don't always need to check the POST check results. Check messages that
POST displays when:
!
you use the server for the first time.
!
the server appears to fail.
!
the server beeps for many times between power-on and OS start-up.
!
an error message appears on the display unit.
