Attention: If you set an administrator password and then forget it, there is no way
to change, override, or remove it. You must replace the system board.
Using the Boot Manager program
The Boot Manager program is a built-in, menu-driven configuration utility program
that you can use to temporarily redefine the first startup device without changing
settings in the Setup utility.
To use the Boot Manager program, complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the server.
2. Restart the server.
3. When the prompt <F12> Select Boot Device is displayed, press F12. If a
bootable USB mass storage device is installed, a submenu item (USB
Key/Disk) is displayed.
4. Use the Up arrow and Down arrow keys to select an item from the Boot
Selection Menu and press Enter.
The next time the server starts, it returns to the startup sequence that is set in the
Setup utility.
