Server Basic Input/Output System (BIOS)
Learn about the server node BIOS Setup Utility.
The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) has a Setup Utility stored in the BIOS flash memory.
The Setup Utility reports system information and can be used to configure the BIOS settings.
The configurable data is provided with context-sensitive help and is stored in the system's
battery-backed CMOS RAM. If the configuration stored in the CMOS RAM is invalid, the
BIOS settings return to their default optimal values.
Note:
The BIOS menus shown in this chapter are examples. The BIOS version numbers,
menu information, and menu selections are subject to change over the life of the
product. You should not change the factory settings unless prompted to do so by
Oracle Service personnel.
