To change any ORCA default settings and override the auto-configuration process, press the F8 key when
prompted.
By default, the auto-configuration process configures the system for the English language. To change any
default settings in the auto-configuration process (such as the settings for language, operating system, and
primary boot controller), execute RBSU by pressing the F9 key when prompted. After the settings are
selected, exit RBSU and allow the server to reboot automatically.
For more information, refer to the HP ROM-Based Setup Utility User Guide on the Documentation CD or
the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/smartstart).
Boot options
After the auto-configuration process completes, or after the server reboots upon exit from RBSU, the POST
sequence runs, and then the boot option screen is displayed. This screen is visible for several seconds
before the system attempts to boot from a diskette, CD, or hard drive. During this time, the menu on the
screen allows you to install an operating system or make changes to the server configuration in RBSU.
BIOS Serial Console
BIOS Serial Console allows you to configure the serial port to view POST error messages and run RBSU
remotely through a serial connection to the server COM port. The server that you are remotely configuring
does not require a keyboard and mouse.
For more information about BIOS Serial Console, refer to the BIOS Serial Console User Guide on the
Documentation CD or the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/smartstart).

HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack

The RDP software is the preferred method for rapid, high-volume server deployments. The RDP software
integrates two powerful products: Altiris Deployment Solution and the HP ProLiant Integration Module.
The intuitive graphical user interface of the Altiris Deployment Solution console provides simplified point-
and-click and drag-and-drop operations that enable you to deploy target servers, including server blades,
remotely. It enables you to perform imaging or scripting functions and maintain software images.
For more information about the RDP, refer to the HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack CD or
refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/servers/rdp).
