Configuring the Boot Device
NOTE: System boot is not supported from an external device attached to a SAS or
SCSI adapter. See support.dell.com for the latest support information about booting
from external devices.
If you plan to boot the system from a hard drive, the drive must be attached to
the primary (or boot) controller. The device that the system boots from is
determined by the boot order specified in the System Setup program
.
The System Setup program provides options that the system uses to scan for
installed boot devices. See "Using the System Setup Program" on page 43 for
information about the System Setup program.
RAC Card
The optional Remote Access Controller (RAC) provides a set of advanced
features for managing the server remotely.
Removing the RAC Card

cover and access any of the components inside the system. See your Product
Information Guide for complete information about safety precautions, working
inside the system, and protecting against electrostatic discharge.
