POST Flow
The flow of operations executed by POST is sequentially described below:
IMPORTANT:
Depending on the system configuration, message
"Press Any Key" requesting key entry may appear on the display screen.
This is requested by BIOS on an installed optional board. See the
explanation described in the manual for the option and press any key.
1.
After power-on, POST is activated to start the memory check. The message indicating the
counted size of the base memory and that of the additional memory appears at the upper
left corner of the display screen. In addition, the following message appears at the bottom
of the screen.
Press <F2> to enter SETUP, <F4> Service Partition, <F12> Network
NOTE:
If you change the factory-default for [Extended RAM Step] in
[Advanced] menu of BIOS SETUP and execute the memory test,
pressing
Space
allows the memory test to be skipped.
It may take several minutes to complete the memory check depending on the size of the
memory installed in the server. Similarly, it may take about a minute to display the proper
information on the screen at rebooting.
2.
If your server has some option boards such as disk array controller installed, POST
displays the message prompting the start of the BIOS setup utility for the option board.
Refer to the manual that comes with the option board for details.
When you press
Ctrl
and any other key at the same time to start the setup utility of the
option board, the subsequent key entry may sometime fails (e.g., key entry is not accepted
or incorrectly recognized). In the case, press
Ctrl
again to recover.
3.
POST displays SCSI ID numbers used by the connected SCSI devices on the screen.
4.
POST detects the on-board RAID controller and displays the message prompting the start
of the WebBIOS (without any key entry for several seconds, POST is automatically
continued). Press the proper keys according to the screen display.
