If this message is not displayed, the remote management function does not need to be initialized. If it is displayed, the remote management function needs to be initialized in order to monitor devices into details.

H/W Configuration of BMC is corrupted.

!! Update BMC H/W Configuration by configuration tool !! !! Refer to BMC configuration manual !!

The message above may appear in a different screen during POST with the NEC logo shown and paused. In that case, press the Esc key to display the diagnosis screen to check whether or not the above message is shown. If a different error message is shown, refer to Chapter 7 “Troubleshooting.”

2.How to make initial settings

Either wait for a while after the above message is shown or press the F1 key to precede POST. Start up the “NEC EXPRESSBUILDER”CD-ROM and select “initialize Remote Management Card” from the Tool menu. By doing so, information specific to each server will be written in.
