6 Information Update
System Start-Up Behavior
The following system behaviors during system start-up are normal and do not indicate a problem with the
system:
• When AC power is applied to the system, if the System Setup program’s
AC Power Recovery
option is
not set to allow the system to power up when AC power is applied, the cooling fans will spin-up briefly
and then stop. (See your
User’s Guide
for information on the System Setup program.)
• It may take 30 seconds or longer for video to display after the system is powered on.
Integrated NIC IPMI Port Functionality
If you configure the integrated NIC for Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) pass-through
traffic, and you also configure the system to boot from the network using the same IPMI port, the NIC
will not be available for management traffic during system boot. After system boot is completed, IPMI
functionality is automatically restored.
In addition, if you configure the NIC to support IPMI management traffic, the NIC driver’s Large-Send
Offload (LSO) feature will be disabled on that port.
Remote Access Controller Card Interaction With Integrated Video
If you install an optional remote access controller card for remote systems management, the system’s front
and back panel video ports will be disabled.
System Messages
Table 1-3 provides an updated list of system
status messages that the system’s front panel
LCD may
display at system start-up, if a memory error occurs. See "System Messages" in your
Installation and
Troubleshooting Guide
for additional information about system messages.
