Using the Boot Configuration Menu

For example:

Select the Console Output Device(s)

Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(PcAnsi)

Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100)

*Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+) Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(VtUtf8) Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(11)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(PcAnsi) Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(11)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100)

*Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(11)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+) Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(11)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(VtUtf8)

*Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(20)

*indicates a currently selected device.

This menu is identical to Console Error Devices. The HP Integrity rx4640 server does not support different configurations for Output and Error console. For correct operation:

When changes are made to either Output or Error console menus, the identical change must be made in both menus.

When changing serial devices, changes must be made to Output, Input, and Error menus for proper operation.

To select:

 

Choose:

 

 

 

Serial A/Serial 1

 

Acpi(PNP0501,0)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+)

 

 

iLO MP Serial Console

Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(11)/Uart(9600 N81)/VenMsg(Vt100+)

 

 

 

iLO MP VGA Port

 

Acpi(HWP0002,700)/Pci(20)

 

 

 

Each option is identified with an EFI device path. Not all options will be available, depending on the configuration of the server and the options purchased. Device paths may differ slightly on different product models.

On both serial device examples, UART 9600 indicates the current baud rate of the serial device (can be changed with the EFI shell baud command), VenMsg Vt100+ is the current emulation type (several different terminal emulation protocols are supported, see list above).

Only one terminal emulation type (PcAnsi, Vt100, etc.) can be selected for each serial console, but multiple serial consoles can be selected at a time.
