System Information
Select this choice to display information about your blade server. When you
make configuration 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 main menu.
– Product Data
Select this choice to view the machine type and model of your blade server,
the serial number, and the revision level or issue date of the BIOS and
diagnostics code stored in electrically erasable programmable ROM
(EEPROM).
v
Devices and I/O Ports
Select this choice to view or change assignments for devices and input/output
(I/O) ports.
Select this choice to enable or disable the integrated IDE and Ethernet
controllers.
– The default setting is Enable for the IDE and Ethernet controllers. If you
select Disable , the system will not configure the disabled device, and the
operating system will not detect the device. (This is equivalent to
disconnecting the device.)
v Date and Time
Select this choice to set the system date and time, in 24-hour format
(
hour:minute:second ). This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility main
menu only.
You can set a time to be added or subtracted from the system time that is sent to
the service processor each time the blade server is started. Use the number keys
to type the hours and minutes and + or − to add or subtract from the system
time. If you want the system clock time to be the same as the service processor
clock time, leave the value set at its default of 0.
v System Security
Select this choice to set a power-on password. See “Using passwords” on
page 48 for more information about the password.
v Start Options
Select this choice to view or change the start options. This choice appears only
on the full Configuration/Setup Utility main menu. Start options take effect when
you start your blade server.
Note: To set the startup sequence, which is the order in which the blade server
checks devices to find a boot record, you must use the BladeCenter
management-module Web interface.
You can set keyboard operating characteristics, such as whether the blade server
starts with the keyboard number lock on or off. You can enable the blade server
to run without a diskette drive or keyboard.
You can enable or disable the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) option for
either of the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controllers. The default setting for this
menu item is
Enabled , which enables the PXE option for the selected controller.
To disable this option for a Gigabit Ethernet controller, select Disabled .
If you enable the boot fail count, the BIOS default settings will be restored after
three consecutive failures to find a boot record.
