Preinstalled Oracle Solaris 11.1 Image
BIOS Boot Mode Restriction
The Oracle Solaris 11.1 operating system (OS) image is preinstalled on the server in
the Legacy BIOS Boot Mode. Therefore, to used the preinstalled image, you must
boot the server in the Legacy BIOS Boot Mode (the default). If you boot the server in
the UEFI BIOS Boot Mode, the server will not boot the Oracle Solaris preinstalled
image and it cannot be used. If you want to switch to UEFI BIOS Boot Mode and use
Oracle Solaris 11.1, you have to do a fresh install of the Oracle Solaris 11.1 OS.

image can only be configured in a non-RAID configuration. If a RAID configuration
is required, you must configure RAID on the server and then perform a fresh install
of the Oracle Solaris OS (or other OS) in the desired RAID configuration.
