IBM eServer 200 xSeries User Reference Manual page 25

The server uses a startup sequence to determine the device from which the
operating system starts. For example, you can define a startup sequence that
checks for a startable diskette in the diskette drive, then checks the hard disk
drive in a drive bay, and then checks a network adapter.
You can enable a virus-warning test that checks for changes in the master boot
record at startup. You also can choose to run POST in the Quick mode and read
the microprocessor serial number.
• Frequency Control
Select this choice to enable or disable the auto-detect DIMM/PCI clock.
• Date and Time
Select this choice to set the system date and time.
The system time is in a 24-hour format: hour:minute:second.
Note: You may also set the date and time using the procedures provided on the
ServerGuide CDs.
• System Security
Select this choice to set a power-on or administrator password. See "Using
passwords" on page 12 for more information. You can also enable the chassis-
intrusion detector to alert you each time the server cover is removed.
• Advanced Setup
Select this choice to change values for advanced hardware features, such as
Cache Control and PCI configuration.
A message appears above the choices on this menu to alert you that the system
might malfunction if these options are configured incorrectly. Follow the
instructions on the screen carefully.
— Cache Control
Select this choice to enable or disable the microprocessor cache.
Attention: Do not make changes to the Cache Control option unless directed
to do so by an IBM authorized service representative.

— Memory Settings
Select this choice to manually enable or disable a bank of memory.
If a memory error is detected during POST or memory configuration, the
server can automatically disable the failing memory bank and continue
operating with reduced memory capacity. If this occurs, you must manually
enable the memory bank after the problem is corrected. Select Memory
Settings from the Advanced Setup menu, and use the arrow keys to highlight
the bank that you want to enable; then, use the arrow keys to select Enable.
