Configuring Your Server

This chapter describes Basic Input Output System (BIOS) configuration.
When you install the server for the first time or install/remove optional devices, thoroughly read this chapter for better
understanding and correct setups.

SYSTEM BIOS ~ SETUP ~

The SETUP utility is provided to make basic hardware configuration for the server. This utility is pre-installed in the flash
memory of the server and ready to run.
The server is configured with the correct parameters using the SETUP utility and shipped in the best conditions. Thus, you
don't need to use the SETUP utility in most cases. However, you might wish to use the SETUP utility in the cases described
below.
IMPORTANT:
The SETUP utility is intended for system administrator use only.
The SETUP utility allows you to set a password. The server is provided with two levels of
password: Supervisor and User. With the Supervisor password, you can view and change all
system parameters of the SETUP utility. With the User password, system parameters available
for viewing and changing are limited.
Do not set any password before installing the operating system.
The server contains the latest version of the SETUP utility. Dialog boxes appear on your
SETUP utility, thus, may differ from descriptions in this manual. If you find anything unclear,
see the online help or ask your service representative.
