RBSU and BIOS Serial Console Configuration
BIOS Serial Console supports console redirection of POST error messages and
configuration utilities and is disabled in the ROM by default. EMS support is
enabled in the OS by default, but also requires system ROM support. This section
takes you through RBSU configuration, basic OS initialization, and terminal
emulation for console redirection.
NOTE: On some newer servers, the BIOS Serial Console default will
be AUTO instead of disabled. During the boot process, the server will
check for the presence of a VT100 compatible client running at 9600
Baud connected to the server and automatically will enable the BIOS
Serial Console for that boot if one is found. This eliminates the need to
run RBSU with a local keyboard and monitor attached to enable the
BIOS Serial Console feature.
RBSU displays and modifies the system configuration settings of a server. The
figures in this section show settings for BIOS Serial Console options on the
RBSU menu. Except for the following figure, these screens are shown with
ANSI emulation.
Press the Enter key while BIOS Serial Console is selected on the RBSU main
menu to display the options.
