18 Quick Start Guide
Run Power-on Self Test
Each time you turn on the system, POST starts running. POST checks the carriers, processors,
memory, keyboard, and most installed peripheral devices. During the memory test, POST displays
the amount of memory it is able to access and test. The length of time needed to test memory
depends on the amount of memory installed. POST is stored in flash memory.
1. Turn on your video monitor and system. After a few seconds, POST begins to run.
2. After the memory test, these screen prompts and messages appear:
Mouse Detected
Keyboard Initialized
Press <F2> to enter Setup
3. If you do not press <F2> and do NOT have a device with an OS loaded, the above message
remains for a few seconds while the boot process continues, and the system beeps once. Then
this message appears:
Operating System not found
(To create software installation diskettes, see the printed Quick Start Guide .)
If you do not press <F2>, the boot process continues and this message appears:
Press <Ctrl><C> to enter SCSI Utility
4. Press <Ctrl+C> if SCSI devices are installed. When the utility opens, follow the displayed
instructions to configure the onboard SCSI host adapter settings and to run the SCSI utilities.
Also see “Using the Symbios
†
SCSI Utility” in the Product Guide . If you do not enter the
SCSI utility, the boot process continues.
5. Press <Esc> during POST to access a boot menu when POST finishes. From this menu, you
can choose the boot device or enter BIOS Setup.
After POST completes, the system beeps once.
What appears next on the screen depends on if you have an OS loaded on the server (or which OS).
