I'm trying to enable one the alarm of my server's raid controller PERC 5/i.
Using this documentation, under the chapter Audible Alarm Warnings
, it's explained that enabling an audible alarm is allowed in order to quickly spot failures on my hard disks.
My trouble is that when entering the disk controller configuration (Ctrl+R at boot time), I'm able to set up lot of things but I cannot navigate to Enable Audible Alarm
. I have :
Enable Controller BIOS
Enable Alarm
Enable BIOS stop on Error
I can navigate with my arrow keys to both the first and third items, but I cannot navigate to or select the second! It's not greyed out, and seems like I should be able to select go on this entry, but my cursor keep skipping it.
Any ideas about what I'm missing here?
