System Configuration

System Configuration contains the following information:

Quick dump that is harvested at the same time of system reboot. Select the [Enable] radio button to obtain quick dump at a system crash.

When a quick dump cannot be produced, a dump is produced by the standard dump function.

Automatic firmware update.

Select the [Enable] radio button to enable automatic firmware update. When this item is enabled and when one module is started, the firmware (System BIOS) of the other module started later will be automatically updated to the one that is already running if it is old.

Automatic module start.

Select the [Enable] radio button to enable the automatic module start. When this item is enabled and when the server is running in the simplex mode with one module, if the other module is inserted to the chassis, it will be automatically started and modules will become duplex.

The module POWER switch of the server is always enabled regardless of this setting. (The module stopped by the module POWER switch can be started even when this setting is disabled.)

The following buttons are displayed for System Configuration:
