When the server boots, the system identifies whether the current ROM bank is corrupt. If a corrupt ROM is

detected, the system boots from the backup ROM and alerts you through POST or IML that the ROM bank

is corrupt.
If both the current and backup versions of the ROM are corrupt, the server automatically enters ROMPaq
disaster recovery mode.

USB support

HP provides both standard USB support and legacy USB support. Standard support is provided by the
operating system through the appropriate USB device drivers. HP provides support for USB devices before

the operating system loads through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM.

HP hardware supports USB version 1.1 or 2.0, depending on the version of the hardware.
Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is normally not
available. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for:

POST

RBSU

Diagnostics

DOS

Operating environments which do not provide native USB support
