ML570 Bios

Can someone tell me how to get into the bios settings on a ML570? There seems to be no indication on what key to press at boot and I can't find it in the documentation that I have.

Thanks

Ian:

Usually, you would press F9 or F10, just after the NIC bios comes up.

The chain of events...

1. POST, bios check, memory count, etc
2. iLo config option
3. Smart Array (if you have one) startup and scan
4. NIC bios load
5. System prompt (F9, F10, F12) <----this is where you want to press F9
6. OS Start Up.

Re: ML570 Bios

If this server is the G1 model, then it will require pressing F10 to get into the system configuration utility.

If this isn't on the drive (immediately following post, but before loading the OS), then this will require downloading the utility, creating the four floppies in the set, and boot off the first one.
The truth is out there, but I forgot the URL..
