stored in electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM), and the revision level of the firmware on the Remote Supervisor Adapter II. - System Card Data Select this choice to view vital product data (VPD) for some server components. v Devices and I/O Ports Select this choice to view or change assignments for devices and input/output (I/O) ports. Select this choice to enable or disable integrated SAS and Ethernet controllers and all standard ports (such as serial and parallel). Enable is the default setting for all controllers. If you disable a device, it cannot be configured, and the operating system will not be able to detect it (this is equivalent to disconnecting the device). If you disable the integrated Ethernet controller and no Ethernet adapter is installed, the server will have no Ethernet capability. This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only. v Date and Time Select this choice to set the date and time in the server, in 24-hour format (hour:minute:second). This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only. v System Security Select this choice to set passwords. See "Passwords" on page 60 for more information about passwords. You can also enable the chassis-intrusion detector to alert you each time the server cover is removed. This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only. - Power-on Password Select this choice to set or change a power-on password. For more information, see "Power-on password" on page 60. - Administrator Password Attention: If you set an administrator password and then forget it, there is no way to change, override, or remove it. You must replace the microprocessor board. Select this choice to set or change an administrator password. An administrator password is intended to be used by a system administrator; it limits access to the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu. If an administrator password is set, the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu is available only if you type the administrator password at the password prompt. See "Administrator password" on page 61 for more information. v Start Options Select this choice to view or change the start options. Changes in the start options take effect when you restart the server. You can set keyboard operating characteristics, such as the keyboard speed, and you can specify whether the server starts with the keyboard number lock on or off. The startup sequence specifies the order in which the server checks devices to find a boot record. The server starts from the first boot record that it finds. If the server has Wake on LAN hardware and software and the operating system supports Wake on LAN functions, you can specify a startup sequence for the Wake on LAN functions. If you enable the boot fail count, the BIOS default settings will be restored after three consecutive failures to find a boot record. Chapter 3. Configuring the server 55
