Figure 51 Server Availability — Wake On LAN screen
Configuring the POST (Power-On-Self-Test) F1 Prompt
Configure the system to display the F1 key in the server POST screen. If an error is encountered,
press the F1 key to continue with the server power-up sequence.
To configure the POST F1 prompt:
1.
From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration
→BIOS/Platform Configuration
(RBSU)
→Server Availability and select POST F1 Prompt and press Enter.
2. The following options are available:
•
Delayed 20 Seconds— if an error occurs, the system pauses for 20 seconds at the F1
prompt, and then continues to boot the OS.
•
Delayed 2 Seconds — if an error occurs, the system pauses for 2 seconds at the F1
prompt, and then continues to boot the OS.
•
Disabled — if an error occurs, the system bypasses the F1 prompt and continues to boot.
3. A series of system tests executes during POST before continuing with the following:
•
If failures occur that allow the system to continue operating, the system continues to boot
and then posts a message.
•
If critical components fail or are missing, the server attempts to boot. If it can boot, it posts
a message and an F1 prompt.
•
If the system cannot run with the missing or failed components, it halts until those
components are replaced.
4. Press F10 to save your selection.
