You can enable a virus-detection test that checks for changes in the boot record when the server starts. You can enable the use of a USB keyboard from a DOS prompt or through the Configuration/Setup Utility program. This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only. v Advanced Setup Select this choice to change settings for advanced hardware features. Important: The server might malfunction if these settings are incorrectly configured. Follow the instructions on the screen carefully. This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu only. - Memory Settings Select this choice to view and change the memory settings. - Memory Bank Enable/Disable Select this choice to manually enable a pair of DIMM connectors. If a memory error is detected during POST or memory configuration, the server automatically disables the failing pair of DIMM connectors and continues operating with reduced memory. After the problem is corrected, you must manually enable the DIMM connectors. Use the arrow keys to highlight the pair of DIMM connectors that you want to enable, and use the arrow keys to select Enable. - Memory Array Setting Select this choice to define the memory array setting. - Memory Initialization Scrub Control Select this choice to define the frequency of the memory initialization scrub, which occurs during POST. - Run Time Scrub Rate Select this choice to define the rate at which the memory scrubbing feature performs a test of all system memory. - CPU Options Select this choice to view and change the microprocessor performance settings, and to select the clustering technology settings. - Active Energy Manager Power Capping Select this choice to limit the maximum power consumed by the microprocessors. - Processor Performance States Select this choice to make available operating-system based performance features. - Clustering Technology Select this choice to set the clustering technology. - Processor Adjacent Sector Prefetch Select Disable to force the microprocessors to only fetch the sector of the cache line that contains the data currently required by the microprocessor. Disable is the default value. - Processor Hardware Prefetcher Select this choice to enable or disable the hardware prefetcher. Enable is the default value. - Processor Execute Disable Bit 62 IBM System x3850 M2 and System x3950 M2 Types 7141 and 7233: User's Guide
