Using WOL after A/C Power Disconnect or
with no Operating System (OS) Installed
(Out-of-Box, or D0uninitialized)
Dell's NICs and LOMs can accomplish WOL after a system has been unplugged
from all A/C power, then returned to A/C power, but not powered on. This state
is known as "Out‐Of‐Box WOL" or "D0uninitialized." This can be useful if
servers to be installed pass through a central processing point for preparation,
and then are installed at a remote site.
NICs and LOMs from Dell have WOL disabled by default. Having more than
one device enabled for WOL in a system can overload the 3.3‐volt auxiliary
power supply and cause it to malfunction. Dell strongly recommends that only
one device be enabled for WOL per system. To enable Out‐of‐Box WOL, create a
DOS‐bootable floppy and copy the utility, listed in the Tools section above,
specific to the WOL device to it from the Dell Open Management Server
Assistant or download it from http://support.dell.com.
Note: Broadcom B5700 and B5701 based NICs and LOMs do not support WOL
in this way.
The steps to enabling WOL after A/C power disconnect or with no operating
system are as follows:
1. Boot the system using the DOS floppy, and run 'IBAUTIL.EXE',
'UXDIAG.EXE –t ABCD' or 'B57UDIAG.EXE –t ABCD'. These programs will
display the physically installed adapters and the status of each card's WOL
setting. UXDIAG.EXE is for NetXtreme II devices and B57UDIAG.EXE is for
NetXtreme I devices.
2. Choose the NIC for WOL, record its MAC address, and note its number on
the left hand side of the display.
