Chapter 2 Powering On and Configuring BIOS Settings 15
Configuring BIOS Settings
This section describes how to view and/or modify the Basic Input Output System
(BIOS) settings. For a description of BIOS Setup screens, see
“BIOS Setup Screens
Summary” on page 18 .
The BIOS has a Setup utility stored in the BIOS flash memory. The Setup utility
reports system information and can be used to configure the BIOS settings. The
configured data is provided with context-sensitive Help and is stored in the system's
battery-backed CMOS RAM. If the configuration stored in the CMOS RAM is
invalid, the BIOS settings will default to the original state specified at the factory.
The BIOS Setup utility contains seven menu screens, which are displayed in the
following order: Main, Advanced, PCI/PnP, Boot, Security, Chipset, and Exit.
Use the left and right arrow keys to move sequentially back and forth through the
seven screens. Fields that can be reconfigured are displayed in color. All other fields
are not configurable. Use the up and down arrow keys to scroll through a screen's
menu. Use the Tab key to move back and forth across columns.
Changing the Configuration of a BIOS Menu Item
You can change the BIOS configuration using several different interfaces:
■
Use a USB keyboard and mouse, and a VGA monitor connected directly to the
server.
■
Use the remote video console of the ILOM Service Processor and redirect the
server’s console output. See
“Redirecting Console Output” on page 121
Note –
Function keys only work when you are using a local connection. When you
are changing a BIOS configuration remotely, you will need to map your keyboard
appropriately.
