You cannot edit the fields.
This choice appears on both the full and limited Configuration/Setup Utility
menus.
• System Information
Select this choice to display information about the server. Changes that you make

The
System Information choice appears only on the full Configuration/Setup
Utility main menu.

(EEPROM).

You can use this choice to enable or disable the integrated SCSI, video, and
Ethernet controllers.
— The default setting is Enable for all the 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 unplugging the device.)
— If the on-board SCSI controller is disabled and no other controller or mass
storage device is installed, operating-system startup cannot occur.
— If the video controller is disabled and no video adapter is installed, the server
will have no video capability.

You can set a time delta to be added or subtracted from the system time that is
sent to the Remote Supervisor Adapter each time the server is started. Use the
number keys to type the hours and minutes and + or
