Step 1: Hardware Settings

In the first configuration screen, enter global settings to control power use, software updates, and
array configuration.

IMPORTANT:

If unsupported media devices, including non-HP SD cards (

“SD Boot”

), are connected

at this point, an error appears. To resolve the issue, remove the unsupported media device, and
make sure you have network share information available, or a disk or ISO, FTP, or USB drive
installed when prompted.

1.

Select the power management System Profile to use. These profiles set a basic policy for
performance versus power usage without having to configure individual settings through RBSU
or UEFI System Utilities menus.

The current (or a recommended) profile is displayed, but to change the settings, the options
include:

No Change

Balanced Power and Performance

Minimum Power Usage

Maximum Performance

The suggested default varies. If Intelligent Provisioning detects existing settings on the server
that match one of these profiles, that profile is displayed in the System Profiles field. If Intelligent
Provisioning detects settings that do not match one of the profiles, No Change is displayed in
this field.

For more information about these options, see

Quick Configs
