* The default position for switch 7 is set in the factory shipping configuration. This switch setting determines the BIOS mode the system defaults to when configuration memory is cleared to factory defaults. The User defined defaults setting in UEFI System Utilities supersedes this switch.
IMPORTANT: To avoid a mismatch between boot modes, Hewlett Packard Enterprise

deployed in. Otherwise, the storage controller may not recognize the OS installed on the storage media.

NMI jumper

The NMI jumper allows administrators to perform a memory dump before performing a hard reset. Crash dump analysis is an essential part of eliminating reliability problems, such as hangs or crashes in OSs, device drivers, and applications. Many crashes can freeze a system, requiring you to do a hard reset. Resetting the system erases any information that would support root cause analysis.
Systems running Microsoft® Windows® experience a blue-screen trap when the OS crashes. When this happens, Microsoft® recommends that system administrators perform an NMI event by temporarily shorting the NMI header with a jumper. The NMI event enables a hung system to become responsive again.

Fans

Fan locations

Fan guidelines

The server has 4 fan modules with 2 rotors in each module. The fan modules operate in a 7+1 configuration.
Observe the following guidelines:
• If one rotor fails, the system runs with the fans in a degraded condition.
• If a second rotor fails, either in the same fan module or a different one, the system performs an OS
type shutdown if the health OS agents are loaded. The chance of two rotors in the same module failing is low.
• If a fan module is missing, a message appears indicating that cooling is not adequate. Then, the
system starts to shut down.
• If you remove a hot-plug fan module, you have approximately 60 seconds to replace the module.
Otherwise, the system starts to shut down.
