Management Tools
If the information configured with the BIOS Setup Utility was deleted due to a drain of the built-in

"Disabled" by default).
If you start up the system while the "OS Boot Monitoring" function remains effective, the operation of
the server may become unpredictable at such times as an abrupt power interruption or restart.
If the server is operated with the "OS Boot Monitoring" function enable, enable the function again
before resuming operation. For details of ServerView, refer to "ServerView User's Guide".
