System x iDataPlex dx360 M2: Problem Determination and Service Guide
- POST Watchdog Timer Value
Select this choice to view or set the POST loader watchdog timer value.
- Reboot System on NMI
Enable or disable restarting the system whenever a nonmaskable interrupt
(NMI) occurs. Disabled is the default.
- Network Configuration
Select this choice to view the system management network interface port,
the IMM MAC address, the current IMM IP address, and host name; define
the static IMM IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address; specify
whether to use the static IP address or have DHCP assign the IMM IP
address; save the network changes; and reset the IMM.
- Reset IMM to Defaults
Select this choice to view or reset IMM to the default settings.
– Adapters and UEFI Drivers
Select this choice to view information about the adapters and UEFI drivers in
the server. You can also select an adapter that you want to configure and start
a configuration program.
Select this choice to see all of the device options, such as the iSCSI, PXE, and
Ethernet parameters.
Select this choice to see the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) options
(unsupported feature).
Select this choice to set the date and time in the server, in 24-hour format
(hour:minute:second).
Select this choice to view or change the start options, including the startup
sequence, keyboard NumLock state, PXE boot option, and PCI device boot
priority. Changes in the startup options take effect when you start the server.
The startup sequence specifies the order in which the server checks devices to
find a boot record. The server starts from the first boot record that it finds. If the
server has Wake on LAN hardware and software and the operating system
supports Wake on LAN functions, you can specify a startup sequence for the
Wake on LAN functions. For example, you can define a startup sequence that
checks for a disc in the CD-RW/DVD drive, then checks the hard disk drive, and
then checks a network adapter.
This choice is on the full Setup utility menu only.
Select this choice to view, add, or change the device boot priority, boot from a
file, select a one-time boot, or reset the boot order to the default setting.
Select this choice to enter the System Event Manager, where you can view the
error messages in the system event logs. You can use the arrow keys to move
between pages in the event log.
The system event logs contain all event and error messages that have been
generated during POST, by the systems-management interface handler, and by
the system service processor. Run the diagnostic programs to get more
information about error codes that occur. See "Running the diagnostic programs"
on page 40 for instructions for running the diagnostic programs.
