Microserver GEN8 long power on

[TheBay]

Bios is set to always power on when mains is back.

On mine, power led turns orange and stay idle there for 20-30 seconds before server start automatically (green led).

Is it the rigth behavior ?

Can waiting time be reduced ?

Hello TheBay,

Please access the BIOS by restarting the Server and tapping F9 while on POST to access the BIOS / RBSU / Setup Menu. Select the Option called Server Availability, and then select Power-On Delay. You should get the below options :

No Delay
15 Second Delay
30 Second Delay
45 Second Delay
60 Second Delay
Random Delay

Select the required option and hit Enter

Hit ESC to go back to previous menu
Hit ESC to Exit the BIOS / RBSU / Setup Menu
Hit F10 to Exit the Setup Utility
This will restart the server.
