Warnings

Warnings

Heed safety instructions: Before working with your server product, whether

you are using this guide or any other resource as a reference, pay close
attention to the safety instructions. You must adhere to the assembly
instructions in this guide to ensure and maintain compliance with existing
product certifications and approvals. Use only the described, regulated
components specified in this guide. Use of other products/components will
void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of the product and will
most likely result in noncompliance with product regulations in the region(s)
in which the product is sold.

System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC
power. To remove power from the system, you must unplug the AC power
cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before
you open the chassis, add, or remove any components.

Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions
may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the
server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks,
and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal
injury or equipment damage can result.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk
drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all
procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available,
provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to
chassis ground - any unpainted metal surface - on your server when handling
parts.

ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be
extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing
a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the board
component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam
pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over
any surface.

Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased
conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on
top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed
pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle
nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the
jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can
damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with
the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not
squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may
bend or break the pins on the board.

serve as a reference to which value is the default value.

 The Help Text entry is the actual text which appears on the screen to accompany the item when

the item is the one in focus (active on the screen).

 The Comments entry provides additional information where it may be helpful. This information

does not appear on the BIOS Setup screens.

 Information enclosed in angular brackets (< >) in the screen shots identifies text that can vary,

depending on the option(s) installed. For example, <Amount of memory installed> is replaced by
the actual value for “Total Memory”.

 Information enclosed in square brackets ([ ]) in the tables identifies areas where the user must

type in text instead of selecting from a provided option.

 Whenever information is changed (except Date and Time), the systems requires a save and reboot

to take place in order for the changes to take effect. Alternatively, pressing <ESC> discards the
changes and resumes POST to continue to boot the system according to the boot order set from
the last boot.

Map of Screens and Functionality

There are a number of screens in the entire Setup collection. They are organized into major

categories. Each category has a hierarchy beginning with a top-level screen from which lower-

level screens may be selected. Each top-level screen appears as a tab, arranged across the top of

the Setup screen image of all top-level screens.

There are more categories than will fit across the top of the screen, so at any given time there

will be some categories which will not appear until the user has scrolled across the tabs which

are present.

The categories and the screens included in each category are listed below, with links to each of

the screens named.
