HP DL320 G4 BIOS settings
The Basic Input Output System (BIOS) settings on the HP DL320
G4 server shipped through Nortel are correct. The BIOS settings do
not require adjustment unless they are reset due to a fault or through
maintenance. If a reset of the BIOS settings occurs, check the serial port
option. The HP DL320 G4 BIOS settings can be seen at
Table 6 "HP
DL320 G4 default BIOS settings" (page 126) . The HP DL320 G4 servers
provide a physical COM1 serial port and a virtual (ILO) COM2 serial port.
If the setting for the serial console port is Auto, output can be directed
to either the COM1 port or COM2 ILO port. Set the serial console port
option to COM1 to ensure the console output goes to the physical COM1.
See
“Configure the COM1 serial port on an HP DL320 G4 server” (page
126) for instructions.
The HP DL320 G4 server shipped through Nortel has a default baud rate
of 9600 b/ps and does not require a reset. If an error occurs and you want
to reset the baud rate, or if you want to change to another baud rate, see
“Changing the baud rate on an HP DL320 G4 Signaling Server” (page
128)
for instructions.
For information about how to enable or disable the BIOS password on
the HP DL320 G4 server see
“Setting the HP DL320 G4 server BIOS
password” (page 130) .
