Managing the workstation blade 59
BIOS Serial Console
BIOS Serial Console allows you to configure the serial port on the local I/O cable to view POST error
messages and run RBSU. A keyboard and mouse are not required.
BIOS programming
HP provides a downloadable SoftPaq to update the BIOS. Each BIOS SoftPaq includes a version number
and date. If there is a more recent BIOS version available than the BIOS on your workstation blade, HP
recommends that you update to the latest BIOS.
The BIOS version is not dependent on the operating system that you are using. A common BIOS can
support Windows® XP-32 and Windows® XP-64.
