Known Issues:

1. To be noted, any BIOS setting changed by SYSCFG, it requires reboot to make BIOS setting change take effective.
2. Reordering boot devices using /bbo should be followed by a system reset as per IPMI spec. Otherwise an immediate display command using /bbo switch may not display the correct boot device order.
3. Restore of BIOS variables will not work for Read only variables or variables which may become read only due to dependent variables.
4. BIOS variables with leading/tailed space can't be restored successfully.
5. As some BIOS settings have dependencies, using syscfg INI file to save/restore BIOS settings only once may not be able to achieve the goal. The solution is to use command line or INI file to change/restore twice. For example, if you want to restore "ATS Support", you have to restore "Intel VT for Directed I/O" from "Disable" to "Enable" first in order to make "ATS Support" visible, then to do second restore to change "ATS Support" value. Upon system reboot, the new BIOS settings will take effect.
6. Utilities, SNMP-SA and IASC cannot run at the same time due to KCS port conflict. There will be error message "Error: Application Cannot Communicate to the BMC.".
7. The settings under server management are saved in BMC. For some of the settings under server management, after a reboot the values from BMC will override the values set through "/bcs" switch.
8. When using syscfg to get BIOS setting, there will be some difference between UEFI shell and OS. For example, syscfg cannot get "Processor PCIe Link Speed" in OS.
9. IO port access is not allowed in Linux when UEFI secure boot is enabled. Please disable UEFI secure boot in F2 menu before running utility.
10. Debian OS does not allow IO memory map by default. User needs to add "iomem=relaxed" to grub boot option to enable IO memory map. Otherwise some features may not work.

About Tuning Utility:

Install this tuning utility and you will be able to manually configure various overclocking values, such as CPU and memory frequencies, system clocks, fan speeds, and monitor temperature for different components.

However, please note that you're supposed to tweak these settings only between supported ranges; changing configurations to extreme values without additional cooling systems might seriously damage components.

The installation steps needed for the software to be applied are very easy: get the downloadable package, extract it if necessary, run the available setup, and carefully follow all displayed instructions for a complete and successful installation.

In addition to that, please note that it's recommended you perform a system reboot so that all changes can take effect properly. Bear in mind that, even though other OSes might be compatible, we don't suggest against installing this release on platforms other than the highlighted ones.

That being said, click the download button, get the package and set up this feature on your system. For more on the latest releases, keep checking back with our website to “stay updated one minute ago.”

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
