80     Maintaining and Troubleshooting the Gateway ALR 9200 Server
Introduction
This chapter describes the BIOS Setup utility. The following chapters 
describe the power-on self test (POST) and other utilities for configuring 
and managing the server. These utilities are:
POST: described in Chapter 7, “Other Utilities” on page 125. 
POST checks basic system integrity and all major components.
Server Setup Utility (SSU): described in Chapter 6, “The Server 
Setup Utility” on page 103. Use f
or extended system configuration 
of onboard resources and expansion cards, viewing the system 
event log (SEL), setting boot device priority, or setting system 
security options.
Run the SSU from a set DOS-bootable diskettes. See “What You 
Need to Do” on page 106 to mak
e a set of SSU diskettes.
Information entered via the SSU overrides information entered via 
Setup.
Emergency Management Port (EMP) Console: described in 
Chapter 7, “Other Utilities” on page 125. Use the EMP to access 
and monitor the server remotely.
FRUSDR Load Utility: described in Chapter 7, “Other Utilities” 
on page 125. Use to
 update the Field Replacement Unit (FRU), 
Sensor Data Record (SDR), and Desktop Management Interface 
(DMI) flash components.
BIOS Update Utility: described in Chapter 7, “Other Utilities” on 
page 125. U
se to update the BIOS or recover from a corrupted 
BIOS update.
Firmware Update Utility: described in Chapter 7, “Other Utilities” 
on page 125. Use to
 update the BMC flash ROM.
Symbios SCSI Utility: described in Chapter 7, “Other Utilities” on 
page 125. U
se to configure or view the settings of the SCSI host 
adapters and onboard SCSI devices in the system.
If the system does not have a diskette drive, or the drive is disabled or 
misconfigured, use Setup to enable it. Or, you can move the CMOS jumper 
on the system board from the default setting (protect CMOS memory) to 
the clear setting; doing so allows most system configurations to boot. Then 
run BIOS Setup and the SSU to configure the system.
