HP ProLiant DL740 Server - Manual (Page 182)

Configuring the Server
Setting Up the Base Environment
The ProLiant DL740 comes equipped with updateable, “intelligent” ROM-based
configuration utilities that display and modify the system configuration settings of the
server. When the server is powered up for the first time the server will automatically
run an enhanced auto-configuration process or you may set up the server manually
using the new ROM-based enhancements described in the following sections.
Enhanced Auto-Configuration Process
During the power-up sequence the first time that the server is booted, the system
ROM auto-configures the system without any user intervention. The following screen
is displayed. You can intervene in the auto-configuration process by pressing the F9
key. By default, the server completes POST and configures the array with the Option
ROM Configuration for Arrays (ORCA). The server will be set up for Microsoft
Windows 2000 and will be ready for either the SmartStart CD (assisted path) or the
operating system installation CD (manual path).
