Note: Before you configure a UEFI-compatible device, you should update the
firmware for your blade server. See "Updating firmware and device drivers"
on page 57 for information about how to update the firmware for your blade
server.
To configure a UEFI-compatible expansion adapter, complete the following
steps:
1. Select Please refresh this page first and press Enter.
2. Select the device driver that you want to configure and press Enter.
3. When you have finished changing settings, press Esc to exit from the
program; select Save to save the settings that you have changed.
– Processors
Select this choice to view or change the processor settings.
– Memory
Select this choice to view or change the memory settings.
– Devices and I/O Ports
Select this choice to view or change assignments for devices and
input/output (I/O) ports. You can configure the remote console redirection,
and enable or disable integrated Ethernet controllers. If you disable a device,
it cannot be configured, and the operating system cannot detect it (disabling a
device is equivalent to disconnecting the device).
You can also choose to enable or disable adapter option ROM support.
Disabling support can potentially improve the time it takes the blade server
to start.
Note: When you disable Ethernet 1 controller in the Setup utility, both the
Ethernet 1 and Ethernet 2 controllers are disabled. However, if you disable
Ethernet 2 controller in the Setup utility, only the Ethernet 2 controller is
disabled.
