Ask about DL360p G8 best BIOS settings

Hi

I want to ask about DL360p G8 best BIOS settings. Anyone have a good idea?

OS: Debian 9 - 11 x64

Running: Web app (not a docker, not a virtualization)

Currently my BIOS is the default.

Thank you

The basic recommendations are to keep the server on the latest firmware releases / SPP, however, being this server a Gen8, that should've been done already.

You may want to configure the server for "Maximun Performance". If that's the case, here's how:

At cold boot, select the “System Options” menu > choose option “Disabled” for each NICs from “Network Boot” capability
“Power Management Options” menu > “HP Power Profile” > select “Maximum Performance”
“Power Management Options” menu > “Advanced Power Management Options” > select “Maximum Performance” for the “Memory Power Savings Mode”
Set the correct date and time in the “Date and Time” menu
“Advanced Options | Advanced System ROM Options” menu > select “Disabled” for the “Power-on Logo
“Advanced Options | Advanced Performance Tuning Options” menu > select “Enabled” for the “ACPI SLIT Preferences”
Also set “Intel Performance Counter Monitor (PCM)”
