erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM). When you make changes through
other options 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, and to specify whether parallel ATA, Serial ATA, or both, will be the
native mode for the server.
Select this choice to enable or disable integrated Ethernet controllers, SATA
RAID, and all standard ports (such as serial and parallel). Enable is the default
setting for all controllers. 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 controller and no Ethernet
adapter is installed, the server will have no Ethernet capability.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only.
v
Date and Time
Select this choice to vew and set the date and time in the server, in 24-hour
format ( hour : minute : second ).
v
System Security
Select this choice to set passwords. See “Passwords” on page 17 for more
information about passwords. You can also enable the chassis-intrusion detector
to alert you each time the server cover is removed.
– Administrator Password
Select this choice to set or change an administrator password. An
administrator password is intended to be used by a system administrator; it
limits access to the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu. If an administrator
password is set, the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu is available only if
you type the administrator password at the password prompt. See
“Administrator password” on page 17 for more information.
– Power-on Password
Select this choice to set or change a power-on password. See “User
password” on page 17 for more information.
v Startup Option
Select this choice to view or change the start options. Changes in the start
options take effect when you restart the server.
You can specify whether the server starts with the keyboard number lock on or
off. You can enable the server to run without a diskette drive, monitor, or
keyboard. You can enable or disable USB support. If you disable the integrated
USB controller, the server will have no USB capability; to maintain USB
capability, make sure that Enabled is selected for the USB Legacy Support and
USB devices options.
The startup sequence specifies the order in which the server checks devices to
find a boot record. The server starts from the first boot record that it finds. You
can also specify whether the integrated SCSI controller or an optional SCSI
adapter has boot precedence.
If you enable the boot fail count, the BIOS default settings will be restored after
three consecutive failures to find a boot record.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only.
