BIOS Setup Utility
NOTE: The BIOS Setup Utility is not required in the initial setup of the server. The default BIOS
settings should be adequate. The options in this utility are meant to assist with specific configuration
issues.
This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility, which is used to change the server
configuration defaults. You can run the utility with or without an operating system present on
the server. Setup stores most of the configuration values in battery-backed CMOS and the rest
in flash memory. The values take effect when you boot the server. The BIOS uses these
values to configure the hardware. If selected values and the hardware do not agree, POST
generates an error message and you must then run Setup to specify the correct configuration.
Run Setup to view or modify such server features as:
•
Configuring system devices and installed options
•
Viewing system information
•
Selecting the boot device and boot priority
NOTE: Features and settings available in the BIOS Setup Utility can change with updated ROM
releases. If the server's actual BIOS Setup Utility screens differ from this documentation then it is
recommended to upgrade to the latest ROM release and download the latest user guide from
http://www.hp.com
Starting Setup Utility
To start Setup during the power-on sequence, follow these steps:
1.
Press the power on/off button on the front panel of the server.
2.
When POST shows the message
Press <F10> if you want to run SETUP
, press
the F10 key
. If the server has an administrator password configured, the system prompts
you to enter the password. If the server does not have a password configured, the main
screen of the BIOS Setup Utility appears.
Recording Your Setup Settings
Before you make any changes, record the current values. If the default values need to be
restored later, such as after a CMOS clear, you must run Setup again. Referring to recorded
original settings could make your task easier.
