Operating system password

An operating system password is very similar to a power-on password and denies access to the computer by an unauthorized user when the password is activated. The computer is unusable until the password is entered and recognized by the computer.

Vital product data

Each computer has a unique Vital Product Data (VPD) code stored in the nonvolatile memory on the system board. After you replace the system board, the VPD must be updated. To update the VPD, see “Flash (BIOS/VPD) update procedure” on page 105.

Desktop Management Interface (DMI)

Desktop Management Interface (DMI) is data containing a list of the system unit serial number along with all serialized components (for example, system board, riser card, memory, and processor). This can be viewed with a DMI (SM BIOS) browser.

Alert on LAN

Alert on LAN provides notification of changes in the computer, even when the computer power is turned off. Working with DMI and Wake on LAN® technologies, Alert on LAN helps to manage and monitor the hardware and software features of the computer. Alert on LAN generates notifications to the server of these occurrences:

vComputer disconnected from the network

vComputer unplugged from the power outlet

vAll POST errors

vOperating system or POST hang condition

Alert on LAN events are configured to be Enabled or Disabled from the LAN server only, and not from the computer. See the LAN administrator for configuration status information.

BIOS levels

An incorrect level of BIOS can cause false errors and unnecessary FRU replacement. Use the following information to determine the current level of BIOS installed in the computer, the latest BIOS available for the computer, and where to obtain the latest level of BIOS.

vCurrent Level BIOS information

– Run the Configuration Utility to determine the level of BIOS installed.
