2-16 General Description
NOTES:
îš„ Depending on the installed memory capacity, the time taken to accept F2 may be rather
short. If so, press
F2 just after the power-on of the server or after the full-screen logo
appears (
Esc may not be pressed).
îš„ Depending on the BIOS setup utility settings, a screen prompting for the security
password appears before the main menu if a password is registered. There are two types
of passwords, supervisor and user passwords. If you log on to the system as a supervisor,
you can not only check all the settings but also change them by using the BIOS setup
utility. If you log on to the system as a user, you can only check or change a limited
number of settings.
The server automatically restarts the POST all over again when you exit the BIOS setup utility.
4. If your server uses onboard serial ATA (SATA) RAID feature, the following message is displayed on the
screen to prompt you to run Array Configuration Utility (ARC).
Press <Ctrl><A> for Adaptec RAID Configuration Utility
Press
Ctrl + A to run ARC. For detailed explanations, refer to Chapter 4.
5. If the server has an optional RAID controller or SCSI card, the POST displays a message prompting you to
launch the RAID configuration utility and the disk array BIOS setup utility.
Refer to the manual supplied with the disk array controller for detail instructions.
The POST will automatically proceed a few seconds later.
6. If you set a password entry using the BIOS setup utility, the password entry screen appears upon successful
completion of the POST.
IMPORTANT: Do not set a password before installing an OS.
7. The OS starts when the POST is completed.
