BIOS Setup Utility (SETUP)
This section describes how to configure Basic Input Output System (BIOS).
Make sure you have read and understood this section to configure properly.
2.1
Overview
BIOS Setup Utility (SETUP) is a utility to do basic hardware settings. This utility is installed in a flash memory in
the server as standard and can be run without requiring a media for boot.
BIOS settings were configured with optimal settings before the server was shipped to you. Therefore, in most of
cases, you should not need to use the SETUP.
Use only when the case applies to any of cases described in
Chapter 3 (2.4
Cases that Require Configuration
)
.
