•
Date and Time
Select this choice to set the system date and time, in 24-hour format
(
hour:minute:second ).
•
System Security
Select this choice to set a power-on password. See “Using Passwords” on page 39 for
more information about passwords.
•
Start Options
Select this choice to view or change the start options. Changes in the start options take
effect when you start the blade server.
— Startup Sequence Options
Select this choice to view the startup device sequence that is set for the 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 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 PXE option for either of the integrated Gigabit Ethernet
controllers. The default setting is
Planar Ethernet 1 , which enables the PXE option
for the first Ethernet controller on the system board.
If you enable the boot fail count, the BIOS default settings will be restored after three
consecutive failures to find a boot record.
You can enable a virus-detection test that checks for changes in the boot record when
the blade server starts.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup menu only.

Select this choice to change settings for advanced hardware features.
Important: The blade server might malfunction if these options are incorrectly
configured. Follow the instructions on the screen carefully.
— Memory Settings
Select this choice to manually enable a pair of memory connectors.
If a memory error is detected during POST or memory configuration, the blade
server automatically disables the failing memory pair of memory connectors and
continues operating with reduced memory. After the problem is corrected, you
must enable the memory connectors. Use the arrow keys to highlight the pair of
memory connectors that you want to enable, and use the arrow keys to select
Enable .
To maintain optimum system operation in the event of a memory failure, you can
set the
Memory Configuration for memory Mirroring or Sparing . Memory
mirroring stores duplicate data on two DIMMs to prevent data loss if a DIMM
fails. Memory sparing removes the failed memory from the system configuration
and activates a Hot Spare Memory pair of DIMMs to replace the failed memory
pair of DIMMs. Before you can enable the memory mirroring or sparing, at least
two pairs of DIMMs must be installed in the blade server that adhere to the
