signature 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 progress via an attached monitor. If configuration or hardware errors are discovered during this early phase of 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. The HPE ProLiant ROM is used to configure the following:
Processor and chipset status registers
System memory, memory map, and memory initialization
System hardware configuration (integrated PCI devices and optional PCIe cards).
Customer-specific BIOS configuration using the HPE ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU).
NOTE: For further information, please refer to the HPE RBSU (ROM based setup utility) user guide:

:
A minimum of one DIMM is required per processor.
Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.
If only one processor is installed in a two processor system, only half of the DIMM slots are available.
DIMM sizes can be mixed in channel. To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity
between all installed processors and to load the channels similarly whenever possible.
LRDIMM and RDIMMs are all distinct memory technologies and cannot be mixed within a server. The majority of ProLiant
Gen9 servers support RDIMM and LRDIMM.
DIMMs of different speeds may be mixed in any order; the server will select a common optimal speed.
The maximum memory speed is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model.
The maximum memory capacity is a function of the memory type and number of installed processors.
HPE memory from previous generation servers is not compatible with the BL460c Gen9 Server Blade.
