Powering On the Server for the First Time
The first time you power on the server you need to enter the BIOS Setup Utility and set the correct
date and time values. After setting these values the server executes its Power-On Self Test (POST)
sequence and passes control to the Boot Manager. From the Boot Manager, you can mount the
LS240 device to block zero and then load the operating system.
For information on the Boot Manager and the EFI Shell, refer to the Maxdata Platinum 9000-4R Server
System Product Guide.
Follow these steps to power up the Maxdata Platinum 9000-4R server for the first time:
1. Make sure all external devices, such as a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, have been
connected.
2. Plug the female ends of both AC power cords into the back of the chassis (A in Figure 5).
3. Plug the male ends of the server AC power cords into wall outlets (grounded, three-pronged
AC power outlets).
4. Power on the video monitor.
5. Press the Power button on the Front Control Panel (F in Figure 4 on page 12). Pressing this
button causes the server fans to start up and POST to begin.
6. When POST displays the message: “Hit <F2> if you want to run SETUP,” enter <F2> and
the system will enter the BIOS Setup Utility. (If you see a prompt asking for a system
password, pressing the <ENTER> key will get you directly to the BIOS Setup Utility.)

NOTE
For information on how to use the BIOS Setup Utility, see the Maxdata Platinum 9000-4R Server
System Product Guide.
7.
From the Main menu of the BIOS Setup Utility, use the arrow keys to move the cursor
down to the system date and time selections. Position the cursor over the date and time
values and enter appropriate values. Use the <tab> key to move within the date and time
fields.
8. Use the arrow key to access the Exit menu and select the item to save changes and exit the
BIOS Setup Utility. After you exit the utility the boot procedure resumes. You can monitor
the remainder of the boot progress on the video display.

NOTE
POST checks the drive carriers, processors, memory, keyboard, and most installed peripheral de-
vices. 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.
