is verified before the flash process starts, reducing accidental programming and preventing malicious efforts
to corrupt system ROM.
HPE ROM provides for essential initialization and validation of hardware components before control is passed
to the customer-installed operating system. The ROM also provides the capability of booting from various
fixed media (HDD, CD-ROM) and removable media (USB), to continue operation to the operating system.
HPE ROM performs very early configuration of the video controller, to allow monitoring of initialization
hardware initialization, suitable messages are now displayed on the connected monitor. Additionally, these
configuration or hardware errors are logged to the Integrated Management Log (IML) to assist in diagnosis.
