BIOS Setup Utility (SETUP)

This section describes how to configure Basic Input Output System (BIOS).

Before you install the server and add or remove optional devices, make sure you have read and understood

this section to configure properly.

2.1

Overview

BIOS Setup Utility (SETUP) is a utility to do basic hardware settings. This utility is installed in a flash memory

in the server as standard and can be run without requiring a media for boot.

BIOS settings were configured with optimal settings before the server was shipped to you. Therefore, in most

of cases, you should not need to use the SETUP. Use only when the case applies to any of cases

described in Chapter 3 (2.4 Cases that Require Configuration).

Starting and Exiting SETUP Utility

2.2.1

Starting SETUP

Run POST following Chapter 3 (1.1.1 POST sequence).

After a while, the following message will be displayed on the lower left of the screen.

Press <F2> SETUP, <F3> Internal Flash Memory, <F4> ROM Utility, <F12> Network

If you press <F2> key at this time, SETUP runs and displays Main menu upon completion of POST. (You can

also press <F2> key while NEC logo appears to display Main menu.)

Tips

If password is set, you will be prompted to enter password at next startup of

SETUP. (The timing when prompt appears depends on setting of password.)

Up to three password entries are accepted. If you enter incorrect password

consecutively three times, the system halts (you can no longer proceed).

In this case, power off the server once, then power it on.

2.2.2

Exiting SETUP

To exit SETUP after saving parameters, select Save & Exit → Save Changes and Exit.

To exit SETUP without saving parameters, select Save & Exit → Discard Changes and Exit.

Tips

To restore the default value, select Save & Exit → Load Setup Defaults.

(The default value might be different from the factory setting.)
