Configuration Displaying and Setting the Fastboot Mode Displaying and Setting the Fastboot Mode When fastboot is enabled (set to on), your workstation does a quick check of the memory and skips I/O interface testing during its power-on self tests. This enables your workstation to complete its boot process more quickly. The default factory setting is for fastboot to be disabled (off). The fastboot mode allows your workstation to boot quickly by performing a less extensive check of the system's memory. When fastboot is disabled (set to off), more extensive memory testing and I/O interface testing is performed during the selftests, causing the boot process to take longer. If you are experiencing difficulty in booting your workstation, set fastboot to off and reboot the system. The more extensive testing may reveal the error condition. To display the status of fastboot, type the following at the prompt: Configuration Menu: Enter command > fastboot To disable fastboot, type the following at the prompt: Configuration Menu: Enter command > fastboot off To enable fastboot, type the following at the prompt: Configuration Menu: Enter command > fastboot on CAUTION: If a graphics adapter is installed in the system, it must be selected as the console device.

Displaying and Setting the Fastboot Mode
When
fastboot
is enabled (set to
on
), your workstation does a quick check of the memory
and skips I/O interface testing during its power-on self tests. This enables your worksta-
tion to complete its boot process more quickly. The default factory setting is for
fastboot
to be disabled (
off
).
The
fastboot
mode allows your workstation to boot quickly by performing a less exten-
sive check of the system’s memory.
When
fastboot
is disabled (set to
off
), more extensive memory testing and
I/O interface
testing is performed during the selftests, causing the boot process to take longer.
If you are experiencing difficulty in booting your workstation, set
fastboot
to
off
and
reboot the system. The more extensive testing may reveal the error condition.
To display the status of
fastboot
, type the following at the prompt:
Configuration Menu: Enter command >
fastboot
To disable
fastboot
, type the following at the prompt:
Configuration Menu: Enter command >
fastboot
off
To enable
fastboot
, type the following at the prompt:
Configuration Menu: Enter command >
fastboot
on
CAUTION:
If a graphics adapter is installed in the system, it
must be selected as the console device. If additional
graphics adapters are installed, Fastboot mode
cannot be used.
