Change BIOS Parameters

You can change the BIOS configuration by using a terminal (or terminal emulator connected to a computer) through the serial console port on the front of the blade server.


Note - Using the ANSI terminal emulation mode provides the best viewing of the BIOS screens.


  1. To change the system’s parameters, enter the BIOS Setup utility by pressing the F2 key.

    See BIOS Settings for summaries of the BIOS menus.

    The first BIOS Setup menu screen is displayed.

  2. Highlight the field to be modified using the arrow and Tab keys.

    See BIOS Screen Navigation.

  3. Press Enter to select the field.

    A dialog box is displayed. The box displays the options that are available for the field that you have chosen.

  4. Modify the field and close the screen.

  5. To modify other parameters, use the arrow and Tab keys to navigate to the appropriate screen and menu item.

    Repeat Step 2 through Step 4 until you are finished modifying parameters.

  6. Press and release the right arrow key until the Exit menu screen is displayed.
