Power Restore
Delay Value
Entry Field 25
– 300, 25 is
default
Fixed time period 25-300 seconds for
Power Restore Delay
When the power restore policy is
Power On or Last State, and the
Power Restore Delay selection is
Fixed, this field allows for specifying
how long in seconds that fixed delay
will be.
When the Power Restore Delay is
Disabled or Auto, this field will be
grayed out and unavailable.
The Power Restore Delay Value
setting is maintained by BIOS. This
setting does not take effect until a
reboot is done. Early in POST, the
Power Restore Policy is read from
the BMC, and if the policy is Power
On or Last State, the delay settings
are sent to the BMC. When the
Power Restore Delay setting is
Fixed, this delay value is used to
provide the length of the delay.
Clear System Event
Log
Enabled
Disabled
If enabled, clears the System Event
Log. All current entries will be lost.
Note: This option is reset to
[Disabled] after a reboot.
This option sends a message to the
BMC to request it to clear the
System Event Log. The log will be
cleared, and then the “Clear” action
itself will be logged as an event.
This gives the user a time/date for
when the log was cleared.
FRB-2 Enable
Enabled
Disabled
Fault Resilient Boot (FRB).
BIOS programs the BMC watchdog
timer for approximately 6 minutes. If
BIOS does not complete POST
before the timer expires, the BMC
will reset the system.
This option controls whether the
system will be reset if the BMC
Watchdog Timer detects what
appears to be a hang during POST.
When the BMC Watchdog Timer is
purposed as an FRB 2 timer, it is
initially set to allow six minutes for
POST to complete.
However, the FRB 2 Timer is
suspended during times when some
lengthy operations are in progress,
like executing Option ROMS, during
Setup, and when BIOS is waiting for
a password or for input to the F6
BBS Boot Menu. The FRB 2 Timer
is also suspended while POST is
paused with the <Pause> key.
