4 System management This section describes the various tools and utilities that allow for the system management of the workstation. ● Computer Setup (F10) Utility on page 25 ● Desktop management on page 36 Computer Setup (F10) Utility The Computer Setup Utility enables you to: ● Change current settings from the factory default settings. ● Modify or restore factory default settings. ● Determine if all of the devices installed on the workstation are recognized by the system and functioning properly. ● Determine information about the operating environment of the workstation. ● Solve system configuration errors detected but not automatically fixed during the Power-On Self- Test (POST). ● Establish and manage security features and password prompting during system reset and during power-on. ● Establish and manage energy-saving time-outs (not supported for Linux platforms). ● Set the system date and time. ● Set, view, and change the system configuration, including settings for processor, graphics, memory, audio, storage, communications, and input devices. ● Modify the boot order of installed mass storage devices such as hard drives, diskette drives, optical drives, and network drives. ● Enable or disable Network Server Mode, which enables the workstation to boot the operating system when the power-on password is enabled with or without a keyboard or mouse attached. When attached to the system, the keyboard and mouse remain locked until the power-on password is entered. ● Enable/disable POST Messages to change the display status of POST messages. POST messages disabled suppresses most POST messages, such as memory count, product name, and other non-error text messages. If a POST error occurs, the error is displayed regardless of the mode selected. To temporarily switch to POST messages enabled, press any key (except F1 through F12) during POST. ● Establish an Ownership Tag, the text of which is displayed each time the system is turned on or restarted. ● Enter the Asset Tag or property identification number assigned by your company to this workstation.
