Setting Up the System 2-45
POST Execution Flow
The following describes the progress of POST in chronological order.
IMPORTANT:
!
Do not make key entries or perform mouse operations while
POST is in progress.
!
Some system configurations may display the message "Press
Any Key" to prompt a key entry. This message is driven by
BIOS of an installed optional board. Make sure to read the
manual that comes with the optional board before any key entry.
!
Powering on the server, after you installed or removed an
optional PCI board or moved it to another slot, may display the
massage that indicates incorrect board configuration and suspend
POST.
In such a case, press
F1 to continue POST. Board configuration
can be made using the utility described later.
1.
After a few seconds from power-on, POST starts checking the memory. The
count message of the basic and expansion memory appears on the display
unit screen. The memory check may take a few minutes to complete
depending on the memory size of the server. Also, it may take
approximately one minute for the display to appear after rebooting the
server.
2.
Some messages appear upon completion of the memory check. These
messages indicate that the system has detected the CPU, keyboard, and
mouse.
3.
After a few seconds, POST displays the following message prompting you
to launch the setup utility, stored in the BIOS of the server. This message
appears at bottom left on the screen.
Press <F2> to enter SETUP, Press <F12> to Network
Launch the BIOS SETUP utility when you need to change the settings to
meet the requirements for the server. As long as the above message is not
displayed with an error message, you don't have to launch the utility.
(Ignore the message. POST will automatically proceed.)
To launch the SETUP utility, press
F2
while the above message is
displayed. See Chapter 4 for setup and parameters.
The server automatically restarts POST when you exit the SETUP utility.
Press F12 to start the operating system from the network.
