IBM Advanced Settings Utility (ASU) program
Use this program as an alternative to the Setup utility for modifying UEFI settings
and IMM settings. Use the ASU program online or out of band to modify UEFI
settings from the command line without the need to restart the server to access

Advanced Settings Utility program” on page 119.

program to perform the following tasks:
v
View configuration information
v
View and change assignments for devices and I/O ports
v
Set the date and time
v
Set the startup characteristics of the server and the order of startup devices
v
Set and change settings for advanced hardware features

Starting the Setup utility
To start the Setup utility, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the server.
Note:
Approximately 1 to 3 minutes after the server is connected to ac power,
the power-control button becomes active.
2. When the prompt
<F1> Setup
is displayed, press F1. If you have set an
administrator password, you must type the administrator password to access the
full Setup utility menu. If you do not type the administrator password, a limited
Setup utility menu is available.
Attention:
If you set an administrator password and then forget it, there is no
way to change, override, or remove it. You must replace the system board.
3. Select settings to view or change.
Setup utility menu choices
The following choices are on the Setup utility main menu for the UEFI. Depending
on the version of the firmware, some menu choices might differ slightly from these
descriptions.
