Page 195: Setting Up The Base Environment
Configuring the Server Setting Up the Base Environment The ProLiant DL760 G2 comes equipped with updateable, “intelligent” ROM-based configuration utilities that display and modify the system configuration settings of the server. When the server is powered up for the first time, the server will automatically run an enhanced auto-configuration process, or you may manually configure the server using new ROM-based enhancements described in the following sections.
Page 196 Configuring the Server If the system memory is installed in an unsupported configuration, then the Memory Configuration Error Diagnostics screen is displayed. For details on memory configuration errors during POST, refer to Appendix E. After the operating system default selection has been accepted or has been set manually using the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU), and the system is rebooted, the boot option screen is displayed.
Page 197: Manual Configuration
Configuring the Server Manual Configuration Pressing the F9 key when prompted during POST launches RBSU, from which you are guided through the following manual setup process: 1. Set the language of the server. Figure 8-3: Setting the language in RBSU HP ProLiant DL760 Generation 2 Server User Guide...
Page 198 Configuring the Server 2. Set the operating system of the server. Figure 8-4: Setting the operating system in RBSU 3. After the language and operating system are set, press the F10 key to exit RBSU and reboot the server. NOTE: You must select a new Primary Boot Controller using the Boot Controller menu before exiting from RBSU if your boot drives are not attached to the embedded array controller.
Page 199: Accessing The System Maintenance Menu
Configuring the Server Accessing the System Maintenance Menu The System Maintenance Menu is embedded into the system ROM and replaces the legacy System Partition functionality that was supported on previous ProLiant servers. SMM can be run by pressing the F10 key at the end of system boot, just before the operating system is loaded from the hard disk, as shown in Figure 8-5 and Figure 8-6.

Figure 8-9: ROM-Based Inspect Utility This utility allows you to view system configuration information and save this information as a snapshot to a file on a diskette.
Page 204: Rom-Based Diagnostic Utility
Configuring the Server ROM-Based Diagnostic Utility When you select Diagnostic Utility in the System Maintenance Menu, the system executes the ROM-Based Diagnostic Utility as shown in Figure 8-10. Figure 8-10: ROM-Based Diagnostic Utility The Diagnostic Utility supplies a preboot method for quickly checking the validity of the three major subsystems of the server needed to boot an operating system.
Page 205 Configuring the Server Memory Diagnostics When you select Memory Diagnostic from the ROM-Based Diagnostic Utility menu, the diagnostic runs until completion or until you press the ESC key to exit. The memory diagnostic is the same system memory test that runs automatically during POST on the first-time power-up of the server.
Page 206 Configuring the Server CPU Diagnostic The CPU diagnostic checks the registers and multiprocessing capability of each of the system processors. The CPU diagnostic runs two tests on each processor: • Testing of all the 16-bit and 32-bit registers • Testing of all the flags for all processors If there are no processor errors, then “OK”...
Page 207 Configuring the Server Boot Disk Diagnostic The boot disk diagnostic can be used to verify the presence and readiness of a primary boot controller. If a controller is present and ready, the test also checks for a valid operating system boot sector. All three of these tests should pass in the case where a bootable operating system is installed on the server.
Page 208: Configuring The Drive Array Controller
Configuring the Server Configuring the Drive Array Controller If you are using a simple SCSI controller to boot from the internal drives, disregard this section and proceed to the “Installing the Operating System” section later in this chapter. If you are using a Smart Array 5i Controller or an array controller installed into a PCI/PCI-X slot to boot from the internal drives, the first time the system is powered up, you must create the logical drive (or drives) in the RAID array.
Page 209 Configuring the Server The location of the external SCSI connector (1) is shown in the following figure. Figure 8-14: External VHDCI SCSI Connector (tape port) NOTE: The external VHDCI SCSI connector supports only external SCSI tape drives. Alternatively, an Ultra3 SCSI RAID controller can be installed in any PCI/PCI-X slot, bypassing the Smart Array 5i Controller.
Page 210: Option Rom Configuration For Arrays
Configuring the Server Option ROM Configuration for Arrays After the POST sequence successfully concludes, the server executes the option ROMs. An option ROM is the code programmed in the read-only memory (ROM) of any PCI expansion boards or embedded devices that are installed in the server. Option ROMs allow you to make hardware configuration changes for each PCI expansion board.
Page 211 Configuring the Server Accessing ORCA After the system has completed POST, press the F8 key for custom configuration or the F7 key to accept the default configuration when prompted to do so. The F7 option will only be presented for the unconfigured boot controller. The ORCA main menu is displayed if the F8 key is pressed.
Page 212 Configuring the Server Using ORCA To configure the drive array controller: CAUTION: If you have installed any previously used hard drives in the ProLiant DL760 G2 server, you must delete any array configuration information that those drives contain. Doing so destroys any data on those hard drives. 1.
Page 213: Array Configuration Utility
Configuring the Server Array Configuration Utility The Array Configuration Utility (ACU) is an easy-to-use graphical configuration utility to help set up and change drive array configurations. It can be used to configure the standard internal drive controller and any option controller boards that are installed.
Page 214 Configuring the Server Starting the Array Configuration Utility The ACU software can be run from CD or from within supported operating systems. Running ACU from the SmartStart CD The ProLiant DL760 G2 server is shipped with the ACU on the SmartStart CD. Start the utility as described in the following procedure.
