- System MAC Addresses Select this choice to set and view the MAC addresses for the Ethernet controllers on the blade server. • Date and Time Select this choice to set the system date and time, in 24-hour format (hour:minute:second). • System Security Select this choice to set a power-on password. See "Using Passwords" on page 61 for more information about passwords. • Start Options Select this choice to view or change the start options. Changes in the start options take effect when you start the blade server. - Startup Sequence Options Select this choice to view the startup device sequence that is set for the blade server. Note: To set the startup sequence, which is the order in which the blade server checks devices to find a boot record, you must use the management-module Web interface. You can set keyboard operating characteristics, such as whether the blade server starts with the keyboard number lock on or off. You can enable the blade server to run without a diskette drive or keyboard. You can enable or disable the PXE option for either of the integrated Gigabit Ethernet controllers. The default setting is Planar Ethernet 1, which enables the PXE option for the first Ethernet controller on the system board. If you enable the boot fail count, the BIOS default settings will be restored after three consecutive failures to find a boot record. You can enable a virus-detection test that checks for changes in the boot record when the blade server starts. This choice is on the full Configuration/Setup menu only. • Advanced Setup Select this choice to change settings for advanced hardware features. Important: The blade server might malfunction if these options are incorrectly configured. Follow the instructions on the screen carefully. - Memory Settings Select this choice to manually enable a pair of memory connectors. If a memory error is detected during POST or memory configuration, the blade server automatically disables the failing memory pair of memory connectors and continues operating with reduced memory. After the problem is corrected, you must enable the memory connectors. Use the arrow keys to highlight the pair of memory connectors that you want to enable, and use the arrow keys to select Enable.
