HotKeys Supported During POST
Certain “HotKeys” are recognized during POST. A HotKey is a key or a key combination that is
recognized as an unprompted command input, that is, the operator is not prompted to press the
HotKey and typically the HotKey will be recognized even while other processing is in progress.
The Intel
®
Server Board S1200V3RP Family BIOS recognizes a number of HotKeys during
POST. After the OS is booted, HotKeys are the responsibility of the OS and the OS defines its
own set of recognized HotKeys.
Following are the POST HotKeys, with their functions:
