v Save Settings

Select this choice to save your customized settings.

vRestore Settings

Select this choice to delete your changes and restore the previous settings.

Additional Configuration/Setup Utility menu choices

When you install an optional Remote Supervisor Adapter in your server, you can view additional menu choices in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, such as:

vSystem Card Data on the System Information menu

Select this choice to view vital product data (VPD) for some server components.

vPCI Slot Information

Select this choice to view the properties of adapters that are installed in PCI and PCI-X slots.

Important: You must use the menu selections to save custom settings for the PCI Slot/Device Information choice. The Save Settings, Restore Settings, and Load Default Settings choices on the main menu of the Configuration/Setup Utility do not save the PCI Slot/Device Information settings.

After making changes, select:

Save and exit the PCI Utility to save the changes and return to the Advanced Setup choice.

Exit the PCI Utility without saving changes to ignore the changes, restore the previous settings, and return to the Advanced Setup choice.

You can use PCI Device Control to enable or disable the PCI and PCI-X slots from this menu. The default setting is Enable for all the PCI slots. If you select Disable, the system will not configure the disabled device, and the operating system will not detect the device. (This is equivalent to unplugging the device.)

vAdministrator Password

Select this choice to set or change the administrator password.

vRemote Control Security Settings

Select this choice to set a remote-control password. When you set a remote-control password, you can also set the number of failed attempts to enter the correct remote-control password, and the required duration before another attempt can be made.
