Additional Configuration/Setup Utility menu choices
When you install an optional Remote Supervisor Adapter in your server, you can
view additional menu choices in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, such as:
v System Card Data on the System Information menu
Select this choice to view vital product data (VPD) for some server components.
v PCI Slot Information
Select this choice to view the properties of adapters that are installed in PCI and
PCI-X slots.
Important: You must use the menu selections to save custom settings for the
PCI Slot/Device Information choice. The Save Settings, Restore Settings, and
Load Default Settings choices on the main menu of the Configuration/Setup
Utility do not save the PCI Slot/Device Information settings.
After making changes, select:
– Save and exit the PCI Utility to save the changes and return to the
Advanced Setup choice.
– Exit the PCI Utility without saving changes to ignore the changes, restore
the previous settings, and return to the Advanced Setup choice.
You can use PCI Device Control to enable or disable the PCI and PCI-X slots
from this menu. The default setting is Enable for all the PCI slots. If you select
Disable, the system will not configure the disabled device, and the operating
system will not detect the device. (This is equivalent to unplugging the device.)

Select this choice to set or change the administrator password.
v Remote Control Security Settings
Select this choice to set a remote-control password. When you set a
remote-control password, you can also set the number of failed attempts to enter
