Configuration/Setup Utility menu choices
The following choices are on the Configuration/Setup Utility main menu. Depending
on the version of the BIOS code, some menu choices might differ slightly from
these descriptions.
Note: When you use the server for the first time, you might want to use the
Configuration/Setup Utility menu choice Load Default Settings to reset the
Configuration/Setup Utility menu choices to the factory default settings, in case they
were changed before you received the server. Otherwise, some choices might not
be displayed in the menu.
v System Summary
Select this choice to view configuration information, including the amount of
installed memory. When you make configuration changes through other choices
in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, the changes are reflected in the
system summary; you cannot change settings directly in the system summary.
This choice is on the full and limited Configuration/Setup Utility menu.
– Processor Summary
Select this choice to view the processor information, including the type, speed,
and cache size of the microprocessor.
v System Information
Select this choice to view information about the server. When you make changes
through other choices in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, some of those
changes are reflected in the system information; you cannot change settings
directly in the system information.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only.
v Devices and I/O Ports
Select this choice to view or change device assignments and input/output (I/O)
ports. Select this choice to enable or disable the integrated SAS/SATA controller
and Ethernet controller, and standard connectors (such as serial and parallel).
Enable is the default setting for all controllers. If you disable a device, it cannot
be configured, and the operating system will not be able to detect it (this is
equivalent to disconnecting the device). If you disable the integrated SAS/SATA
controller and no SAS/SATA adapter is installed, the server will have no
SAS/SATA capability. If you disable the integrated Ethernet controller and no
Ethernet adapter is installed, the server will have no Ethernet capability.
This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only.
– Serial Port 1
Select this choice to set up serial port 1.
– Serial Port 2
Select this choice to set up serial port 2.
