When you make configuration changes through other choices in the Setup
utility, the changes are reflected in the system summary; you cannot change
settings directly in the system summary.
– Product Data
Select this choice to view, the revision level or issue date of the firmware, the
integrated management module and diagnostics code, and the version and
date.
v System Settings
Select this choice to view or change the server component settings. This choice is
on the full Setup utility menu only.
– Adapters and UEFI Drivers
Select this choice if you want to use the configuration capabilities of the
device drivers to configure the device.
– Processors
Select this choice to view or change the processor settings.
– Memory
Select this choice to view or change the memory settings. To configure
memory mirroring, select System Settings → Memory → Memory Mode →
Mirroring.
– Devices and I/O Ports
Select this choice to view or change settings for devices and input/output
(I/O) ports. You can configure the serial ports; configure remote console
redirection; enable or disable the integrated Ethernet controller, SAS/SATA
controller, SATA optical drive channels, and PCI slots. 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).
– Power
Select this choice to view or change power capping to control consumption,
processors, and performance states.
- Active Energy Manager
Select this choice to enable or disable power capping. If you enable power
capping, the Active Energy Manager program will limit the maximum
power that is consumed by the server.
– Operating Modes
Select this choice to view or change the operating profile (performance and
power utilization). This choice specifies a preset operating mode to configure
the server for maximum power savings, maximum efficiency, and maximum
performance.
- Minimal Power mode
Select this choice to minimize the absolute power consumption of the
system during operation. Server performance in this mode might be
reduced depending on the application that is running.
- Efficiency-Favor Power mode
Select this choice to configure the server to draw the minimum amount of
power and generate the least noise. Server performance might be degraded,
depending on the application that you are running. This mode provides the
best features for reducing power and increasing performance in
applications where the maximum bus speeds are not critical.
