Disabling OS Boot Monitoring Feature
Before starting setup process, the OS boot monitoring feature needs to be disabled.
Important Be sure to disable OS boot monitoring feature before setting up the system for
successful setup. This function is enabled by shipping default. If this setting is valid,
setup cannot be performed correctly.
Tips
For details of operations for BIOS Setup Utility and parameters for boot monitoring feature,
see Chapter 3 (1. System BIOS) in Maintenance Guide.
1. Turn on the display and the peripheral equipment connected to the server.
Note If the power cords are connected to a power controller like a UPS, make sure that it is
powered on.
2. Remove the front bezel.
3. Press the POWER switch located on the front side of the server.
Note Check that the module POWER lamps of the CPU/IO module 0 and CPU/IO module 1 are
blinking, and then turn the POWER switch of this system on.
Lift the acrylic cover, and press the POWER switch.
Important Do not turn off the power before the "NEC" logo appears.
After a while, the "NEC" logo will appear on the screen.
Tips
While the "NEC" logo is displayed on the screen, the server performs a power-on self test
(POST) to check itself. OS starts upon completion of POST.
For details, see Chapter 3 (1.1 POST) in User’s Guide.
Note
If the server finds errors during POST, it will interrupt POST and display the error message.
See Chapter 1 (6.2 POST Error Message) in Maintenance Guide.
