Lenovo 6531 Computer Hardware User Manual


 
This choice is on the full Setup Utility menu only.
Start Options
Select this choice to view or change the start options, including the startup sequence, keyboard NumLock
state, PXE boot option, and PCI device boot priority. Changes in the startup options take effect when you
start the server.
The startup sequence species the order in which the server checks devices to nd a boot record. The
server starts from the rst boot record that it nds. For example, you can dene a startup sequence that
checks for a disc in the DVD drive, then checks the hard disk drive, and then checks a network adapter.
This choice is on the full Setup Utility menu only.
Boot Manager
Select this choice to view, add, delete, or change the device boot priority, boot from a le, select a
one-time boot, or reset the boot order to the default setting.
If the server has ®Wake on LAN hardware and software and the operating system supports ®Wake on
LAN functions, you can specify a startup sequence for the ®Wake on LAN functions. For example, you
can dene a startup sequence that checks for a disc in the CD-RW/DVD drive, then checks the hard
disk drive, and then checks a network adapter.

programs to get more information about error codes that occur.
