Configuring the server

The following configuration programs come with the server:
• Setup utility
The UEFI Setup Utility program is part of the basic input/output system firmware. Use it to change
interrupt request (IRQ) settings, change the startup-device sequence, set the date and time, and set
passwords. For information about using this program, see "Using the Setup utility" on page 87.
• Boot Manager program
The Boot Manager program is part of the server firmware. Use it to override the startup sequence that
is set in the Setup utility and temporarily assign a device to be first in the startup sequence. For more
information about using this program, see "Using the Boot Manager program" on page 93.
• ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD
The ServerGuide program provides software-setup tools and installation tools that are designed for the
server. Use this CD during the installation of the server to configure basic hardware features, such as an
integrated SAS/SATA controller with RAID capabilities, and to simplify the installation of your operating
system. For information about using this CD, see "Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD"
on page 85.
• FastSetup
FastSetup is a no-cost software tool that helps simplify the maintenance and deployment
of selected BladeCenter chassis, servers, and components. The intuitive graphical interface
initializes all phases of server setup, including discovery, update, and configuration. Features
include templates that enable replication of settings to many servers and automation that
reduces hands-on time and user errors. Wizards and other default settings enable customization
capabilities. The low-touch, set-once and walk-away feature reduces the hands-on server setup
time from days to minutes, particularly for larger deployments. For information about this tool, see
