SPARC Enterprise T5440 Server Service Manual • June 2011

POST Parameters

The server can be configured for normal, extensive, or no POST execution. You can
also control the level of tests that run, the amount of POST output that is displayed,
and which reset events trigger POST by using ILOM command variables.

The keyswitch_state parameter, when set to diag, overrides all the other ILOM
POST variables.

The following table lists the ILOM variables used to configure POST.

“POST Fault

Management Flowchart” on page 23

shows how the variables work together.
