SYSTEM BIOS –SETUP–
This section describes how to configure Basic Input Output System (BIOS).
Before you install the server and add or remove optional devices, make sure you have read and understood this
section to configure properly.
2.1
Overview
The SETUP utility is provided to make basic hardware configuration for the server. This utility is pre-installed in
the flash memory of the server and ready to run.
SETUP was configured for optimal performance before the server was shipped. Therefore, in most of cases,
you do not need to use the SETUP utility.
Use only when the case applies to any of cases described in
Chapter 3 (2.4 Cases that Require Configuration)
.

Run POST following
Chapter 3 (1.1.1
Flow of POST

.
After a while, the following message will be displayed on the lower left of the screen. (The on-screen message
depends on your system environment.)
Press <F2> SETUP, <F4> ROM Utility, <F12> Network
If you press <F2> key at this time, SETUP runs and displays

menu upon completion of POST. (You can
also press <F2> key to display
