Software and configuration utilities 56

Using RBSU

To use RBSU, use the following keys:

• To access RBSU, press the F9 key during power-up when prompted.

• To navigate the menu system, use the arrow keys.

• To make selections, press the Enter key.

• To access Help for a highlighted configuration option, press the F1 key.

IMPORTANT: RBSU automatically saves settings when you press the Enter key. The utility does

not prompt you for confirmation of settings before you exit the utility. To change a selected setting,

you must select a different setting and press the Enter key.

Default configuration settings are applied to the server at one of the following times:

• Upon the first system power-up

• After defaults have been restored

Default configuration settings are sufficient for proper typical server operation, but configuration settings can

be modified using RBSU. The system will prompt you for access to RBSU with each power-up.

Auto-configuration process

The auto-configuration process automatically runs when you boot the server for the first time. During the

power-up sequence, the system ROM automatically configures the entire system without needing any

intervention. During this process, the ORCA utility, in most cases, automatically configures the array to a

default setting based on the number of drives connected to the server.

NOTE: The server may not support all the following examples.

NOTE: If the boot drive is not empty or has been written to in the past, ORCA does not

automatically configure the array. You must run ORCA to configure the array settings.

Drives installed Drives used RAID level

1 RAID 0

2 RAID 1

3, 4, 5, or 6

3, 4, 5, or 6 RAID 5

0 None

To change any ORCA default settings and override the auto-configuration process, press the F8 key when

prompted.

For more information on RBSU, see the HP ROM-Based Setup Utility User Guide on the Documentation CD or

the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support/smartstart/documentation).

Boot options

Near the end of the boot process, the boot options screen is displayed. This screen is visible for several

seconds before the system attempts to boot from a supported boot device. During this time, you can do the

following:

• Access RBSU by pressing the F9 key.
