Setup Program
Security: Use the Security selection to set a supervisor-level
password to control access to the Setup program, or to set a
password on boot (startup). Also, use this menu selection to control
diskette drive access to a supervisor, user, or both. This selection
also allows you to write-protect the boot sector of a hard disk drive.
Write-protecting the boot sector is a form of virus protection.
Help: When you scroll to any screen choice, the Item Specific Help
panel displays alongside the choices. General help information is
available by pressing F1.
Starting the Setup Program
To access the Setup program:
1. Remove all diskettes from the server.
Note: Do not start the Setup program while you are using the
EISA Configuration program.
2. Turn on the server and watch the screen. Be ready to act
quickly.
3. After the IBM logo screen appears and then quickly disappears,
you are prompted to Press <F2> to enter SETUP. As soon as
you see that prompt, press F2. If the Setup program screen does
not appear, restart your system and try again.
Note: If a configuration error occurs, a prompt appears before
the operating system starts (see “Configuration Conflicts”
on page 299).
4. Follow the instructions on the screen to view or change the
configuration.
You must correctly exit from the Setup program to save the
configuration information.
5. Press Esc or move the cursor to the Exit option on the menu
bar.
6. Select Exit from the menu bar.
7. Select Save Changes and Exit.
