Setting The Post F1 Prompt Delay - HP ProLiant Gen10 User Manual

Setting the POST F1 prompt delay

Setting the POST F1 prompt delay
Use the POST F1 Prompt option to configure how the system displays the F1 key in the server POST screen. When enabled and an error
occurs, you can press the F1 key to continue with the server power-up sequence.
A series of system tests execute during POST and:
If failures occur that allow the system to continue operating, the system continues to boot and then posts a message.
If critical components fail or are missing, the server attempts to boot. If it can boot, it posts a message and, when enabled, an F1
prompt.
If the system cannot run with the missing or failed components, it halts until those components are replaced.
Procedure Procedure
1. From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration > BIOS/Platform Configuration (RBSU) > System Options > Server
Availability > POST F1 Prompt.
2. Select a setting.
Delayed 20 seconds—If an error occurs, the system pauses for 20 seconds at the F1 prompt, and then continues to boot the OS.
Delayed 2 seconds—If an error occurs, the system pauses for two seconds at the F1 prompt, and then continues to boot the OS.
Disabled—If an error occurs, the system bypasses the F1 prompt and continues to boot.
3. Save your setting.
