For more information on RBSU, see the HP ROM-Based Setup Utility User Guide on the Documentation CD or the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support/rbsu). Boot options Near the end of the boot process, the boot options screen is displayed. This screen is visible for several seconds before the system attempts to boot from a supported boot device. During this time, you can do the following: • Access RBSU by pressing the F9 key. • Access Intelligent Provisioning Maintenance Menu by pressing the F10 key. • Access the boot menu by pressing the F11 key. • Force a PXE Network boot by pressing the F12 key. Configuring AMP modes Not all HP ProLiant servers support all AMP modes. RBSU provides menu options only for the modes supported by the server. Advanced memory protection within RBSU enables the following advanced memory modes: • Advanced ECC Mode-Provides memory protection beyond Standard ECC. All single-bit failures and some multi-bit failures can be corrected without resulting in system downtime. • Online Spare Mode-Provides protection against failing or degraded DIMMs. Certain memory is set aside as spare, and automatic failover to spare memory occurs when the system detects a degraded DIMM. DIMMs that are likely to receive a fatal or uncorrectable memory error are removed from operation automatically, resulting in less system downtime. For DIMM population requirements, see the server-specific user guide. Utilities and features Array Configuration Utility ACU is a utility with the following features: • Runs as a local application or remote service accessed through the HP System Management Homepage • Supports online array capacity expansion, logical drive extension, assignment of online spares, and RAID or stripe size migration • Suggests the optimum configuration for an unconfigured system Software and configuration utilities 53
