Oracle ILOM
Properties That Affect POST Behavior
Note - The value of keyswitch_state must
be normal when individual POST parameters are
changed.
![Caution Caution](graphics/caution.gif) | Caution -
Setting the verbosity values to max will result in POST taking a longer
amount of time to complete its testing of the server.
