Getting Started

POST (Power On Self-Test)

Turning on the server by the “Remote Management” function

This server has the function that the server can be started up by a client who is in connection with the network interface.

Installing HarnessEye/web contained in the Toshiba Server Setup Tool on the client enables packets to be sent from the client to start up the server.

POST (Power On Self-Test)

When the power/sleep button located on the front panel is pressed the server is switched on and the “POST (Power On Self-Test)” (self-diagnosing function) is automatically executed. The mother- board, microprocessor, memory, keyboard and some of the peripheral devices are automatically checked by the POST. During the memory test, the storage capacity of the memory being accessed and tested by the POST is shown on the display.

The following message appears on the display depending on the setup status of the system.

Press <F2> to enter SETUP

If the <F2> key is pressed following the message, the BIOS setup utility is started. If the <F2> key is not pressed, ignoring the mes- sage, the system continues its startup operation.

If an error is detected by the POST, the operator is warned about it in one of the two different ways, depending on the kind of the error: one is by buzzer sound (beep code) in mid-course of testing, and the other is by an error code and error message appearing on the display after the POST is complete.

NOTE: Avoid turning the power off during POST processing. To forcibly end in an emergency, you can turn the power off by holding the power/sleep button down for four seconds.
