Custom POST Message allows you to input a message that can be viewed
during POST.

Processor Hyper-Threading allows Intel Hyper-Threading technology to be
enabled or disabled. Processor Hyper-Threading delivers two logical
processors that can execute multiple tasks simultaneously using shared
hardware resources of a single processor. By default, this setting is Enabled.

BIOS Serial Console Menu

The BIOS Serial Console option allows you to configure the serial port to view
POST error messages and run RBSU remotely through a serial connection to the
server COM port. The server that you are remotely configuring does not require a
keyboard and mouse. For more information about BIOS Serial Console, and a
copy of the BIOS Serial Console User Guide, refer to the Documentation CD.

Utility Language Menu

The Utility Language menu enables you to set the display language for RBSU.

Auto-Configuration Process

The auto-configuration process automatically runs when you boot the server for
the first time. During the power-up sequence that occurs, the system ROM
automatically configures the entire system without needing any intervention.
During this process, the ORCA utility, in most cases, automatically configures
the array to a default setting based on the number of drives connected to the
server.
