Description
Options are User Defined String, Model Number, or None.
If the LCD Home display is set to anything other than User
Defined String, Model Number, or None, this option in BIOS
will display Advanced. You will not be able to edit this setting in
BIOS until it is set back to User Defined String, Model Number,
or None through another LCD configuration utility (such as the
optional BMC or iDRAC6 Configuration Utility or LCD panel
menu).
You can enter a name or other identifier for the system, to be
displayed on the LCD module screen.
Description
Options are OS Control, Active Power Controller, Custom, or
Maximum Performance.
If you select OS Control, Active Power Controller, or Maximum
Performance, the BIOS preconfigures the remaining options on
this screen. If you select Custom, you can configure each option
independently.
Options are OS Control, Active Power Controller, Custom, or
Maximum Performance. For all but the Custom setting, the
BIOS pre-configures the power settings on this screen as follows:
OS Control sets the CPU power to OS DBPM, the fan power to
Minimum Power, and the memory power to Maximum
Performance. In this setting, all processor performance
information is passed from the system BIOS to the operating
system for control. The operating system sets the processor
performance based on processor utilization.
Active Power Controller sets the CPU power to System DBPM,
the fan power to Minimum Power, and the memory power to
Maximum Performance. In this setting, processor performance is
controlled by the system BIOS.
Maximum Performance sets all fields to Maximum Performance.
If you select Custom, you can configure each option independently.
