Chapter 3. Configuring the server
The following configuration programs and utilities come with the server:
v Setup utility
The UEFI (formerly BIOS) Setup Utility program is part of the basic input/output
system firmware. Use it to change interrupt request (IRQ) settings, change the
startup-device sequence, set the date and time, and set passwords. For
information about using this program, see “Using the Setup utility” on page 54.
v Boot Manager program
The Boot Manager program is part of the server firmware. Use it to override the
startup sequence that is set in the Setup utility and temporarily assign a device to
be first in the startup sequence. For more information about using this program,
see “Using the Boot Manager program” on page 58.
Note: OPROM configuration utility is only available for emulex 10G card.
v
IBM ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD
The ServerGuide program provides software-setup tools and installation tools
that are designed for the server. Use this CD during the installation of the server
to configure basic hardware features, such as an integrated SAS/SATA controller
with RAID capabilities, and to simplify the installation of your operating system.
For information about using this CD, see “Using the ServerGuide Setup and
Installation CD” on page 64.
v integrated management module II
Use the integrated management module II (IMM2) for configuration, to update the
firmware and sensor data record/field replaceable unit (SDR/FRU) data, and to
remotely manage a system. For information about using the IMM2, see “Using
the integrated management module II” on page 59.
v Ethernet controller configuration
For information about configuring the Ethernet controller, see “Configuring the
Gigabit Ethernet controller” on page 66.
v LSI Configuration Utility program
Use the LSI Configuration Utility program to configure the integrated SAS/SATA
controller with RAID capabilities and the devices that are attached to it. For
information about using this program, see “Using LSI Configuration Utility
program” on page 68
The following table lists the different server configurations and the applications
that are available for configuring and managing RAID arrays.

v
IBM Advanced Settings Utility (ASU) program
Use this program as an alternative to the Setup utility for modifying UEFI settings
and IMM2 settings. Use the ASU program online or out of band to modify UEFI
settings from the command line without the need to restart the server to access
the Setup utility. For more information about using this program, see “IBM
Advanced Settings Utility program” on page 70.
