RBSU supports a wide range of configuration customization features, including:

• Selection of a primary operating system from a list of supported

operating systems

• Selection of a Primary Boot Controller from a list of installed mass

storage devices

• Configuration of embedded system devices, such as serial and mouse ports
• Configuration of standard interrupts (IRQs) for PCI devices
• Setting of date and time
• Automatic resolution of resource conflicts in areas such as port addresses

and IRQs

• Storage of configuration in nonvolatile memory

The RBSU is pre-installed in the embedded system ROM on the server. The RBSU
has embedded support for English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and
Japanese languages.

NOTE: Systems that use RBSU do not support the System Configuration Utility. For more
