Powering On and Configuring BIOS Settings |
This chapter contains the following procedures and information:
| Note - Before powering on your server for the first time, follow the installation instructions provided in the Sun Blade X6250 Modular Server Installation Guide, (820-1182.) |
|
1. When you insert your server module into a chassis that is powered on, it comes up to standby power mode.
When the server module is in standby power mode, the green Power/OK LED on the front panel blinks, indicating that the service processor (SP) is working and the system is ready to be fully powered on to main power mode. See FIGURE 2-1 for the LED location.
| Note - See your chassis documentation for information about powering on the chassis. |
2. Use a non-conducting pointed object, such as a stylus to press and release the recessed Power button on the server front panel. See FIGURE 2-1 for the Power button location.
When main power is applied to the full server, the green Power/OK LED next to the Power button lights and remains lit.
FIGURE 2-1 shows the location of the power button.
You can also use the SP to turn on main power.
FIGURE 2-1 Power Button and Power/OK LED Location
|
System Status/OK Indicator (green) - Standby blink = 0.1 second on / 2.9 seconds off - Transition blink = 1 Hz on/off at 50% duty cycle during SP boot and POST |
You can use one of two methods for shutting down the server from main power mode to standby power mode.
1. Graceful shutdown: Use a non-conducting pointed object, such as a stylus to press and release the Power button on the front panel. This causes Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) enabled operating systems to perform an orderly shutdown of the operating system and place it in standby power mode. Servers not running ACPI-enabled operating systems will shut down to standby power mode immediately.
2. Emergency shutdown: Press and hold the Power button for four seconds to force main power off and enter standby power mode.
3. ELOM or ILOM web interface: Log in to the web interface and use the Remote Power Control screen to perform a graceful power off of the server.
4. ELOM or ILOM command-line interface (CLI): Log in to the ELOM or ILOM CLI and use the following command:
For more information about controlling server power from the web interface or CLI, see the corresponding SP documentation collection.
5. To completely power off the server, you must remove it from the chassis. See Removing the Server Module From the Chassis for details.
When main power is off, the Power/OK LED on the front panel blinks, indicating that the server is in standby power mode.
This section describes how to view and modify the BIOS settings.
The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) has a setup utility stored in the BIOS flash memory. The setup utility reports system information and can be used to configure the BIOS settings. The configured data is provided with context-sensitive Help and is stored in the system's battery-backed CMOS RAM. If the configuration stored in the CMOS RAM is invalid, the BIOS settings will default to optimal values specified in the BIOS.
Use the left and right arrow keys to move sequentially back and forth through the seven screens. Fields that can be reconfigured are displayed in color. All other fields are nonconfigurable. Use the up and down arrows, on the keyboard, to scroll through a screen's menu. Use the Tab key to move back and forth across columns.
You can change the BIOS configuration using several different interfaces:
1. To change the system parameters, enter the BIOS Setup Utility by pressing the F2 key while the system is performing the power-on self-test (POST).
The first BIOS Setup menu screen is displayed.
POST testing is indicated when the Power/OK LEDs on the front and back panels go into slow-blink mode.
2. Highlight the field to be modified using the arrow keys and Tab key.
3. Press Enter to select the field.
A dialog box appears. The dialog box presents you with the options available for the setup field that you have chosen.
4. Modify the setup field and close the screen.
5. If you need to modify other setup parameters, use the arrow keys and Tab key to navigate to the desired screen and menu item, then repeat Steps 1 through 4. Otherwise, go to Step 6.
6. Press and release the right arrow key until the Exit menu screen is displayed.
7. Follow the instructions on the Exit menu screen to save your changes and exit the Setup utility.
This section contains information and considerations regarding the system BIOS.
The slots for the PCI cards are detected by the BIOS during startup in this order: PCI EM BLx.1 and PCI EM BLx.0. For example, if the server module is in slot 3, the BIOS boot priority will be 3.1. 3.0.
The Sun Blade X6250 server modules have up to two 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports provided by the NEMs installed in the Sun Blade 6000 chassis. The lower NEM port provides NET 0 and the upper NEM port provides NET 1. The numbers correspond to the slot number, as shown in FIGURE 2-2 (N represents the slot number).
FIGURE 2-2 Ethernet Port Chassis Labeling Designations
FIGURE 2-3 shows how various operating systems and interfaces name the NICs shown in FIGURE 2-2.
FIGURE 2-3 Server Module NIC Naming
The order in which the BIOS detects the Ethernet ports during bootup, and the corresponding drivers that control those ports are listed below:
The BIOS Option ROM is 128 KB. Of these 128 KB, approximately 80 KB are used by the VGA controller, and the network interface card. Approximately 48 KB remain for the Option ROM.
TABLE 2-1 provides summary descriptions of the seven top-level BIOS setup screens.
FIGURE 2-4 summarizes the BIOS Setup Utility menu tree, with differences between models of the server noted. See BIOS Setup Utility Menu Screens for examples of each of these screens.
FIGURE 2-4 Server Module BIOS Setup Utility Menu Tree
The following figures show sample BIOS setup menu screens.
| Note - The screens shown are examples. The version numbers and the screen items and selections shown are subject to change over the life of the product. |

Jumper J23 allows you to reset the BIOS passwords and clear CMOS. Because the SP password is in CMOS, this resets it to the factory default.
1. Shut down the server to standby power mode by using a non-conducting pointed object, such as a stylus to press and release the recessed Power button on the front panel.
2. Remove the server from the chassis. See Removing the Server Module From the Chassis.
3. Remove the main cover from the server. See Removing the Main Cover.
4. Change jumpers on J23 as follows:
FIGURE 2-5 shows the location of the jumper block, and the pin numbers.
5. Install the server main cover.
6. Install the server into the chassis.
