Installation and configuration 17
1.
Confirm that the controller is connected to a logical drive. (If it is not, it cannot be set as the boot
controller.)
2.
Perform a normal system shutdown.
3.
Restart the server.
POST runs, and the system recognizes devices. When the system recognizes the controller you
want to set as the boot controller, continue with the next step.
4.
Press the
F5
key.
After POST completes, the system launches the HPE SSA GUI, or if you are using Serial Console,
the system launches the HPE SSA CLI.
5.
Select the appropriate menu option, and follow any subsequent on-screen instructions. If prompted
to save the settings, do so.
6.
(Optional) To configure or reconfigure an array on this controller, you can use HPE SSA. For more
information, see the HPE Smart Storage Administrator User Guide .
To configure an array at a later time or to use a different utility to configure the array, exit HPE SSA,
and then restart the server for the new boot controller setting to take effect.
Setting the controller order
For servers running in legacy (non-UEFI) mode, use the following procedure to set the controller order
using RBSU.
1.
Power up the server.
The server runs the POST sequence and briefly displays an RBSU prompt.
2.
At the prompt, press the F9 key. After POST completes, RBSU starts.
3.
Follow the on-screen instructions to set the boot order for the different controllers in the system.
4.
Save the settings.
5.
Exit from the utility.
For more information about using RBSU, see the ROM-Based Setup Utility User Guide or the server user
guide. These documents are both available on the Documentation CD supplied in the server kit.

Configuring an array
To configure an array on an Smart Array controller, use HPE SSA. For more information, see the HPE
Smart Storage Administrator User Guide
.
Remember the following factors when you build an array:
•
All drives grouped in a logical drive must be of the same type (for example, either all SAS or all SATA
and either all hard drives or all solid state drives).
