Using the embedded hypervisor

The VMware ESXi embedded hypervisor software is available on the optional IBM
USB flash device with embedded hypervisor. The USB flash device can be installed
in USB connectors 3 and 4 on the system board (see "System-board internal
connectors" on page 26 for the location of the connectors). Hypervisor is
virtualization software that enables multiple operating systems to run on a host
system at the same time. The USB flash device is required to activate the
hypervisor functions.
To start using the embedded hypervisor functions, you must add the USB flash
device to the startup sequence in the Setup utility.
To add the USB flash device to the startup sequence, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the server.
2. When the prompt <F1> Setup is displayed, press F1.
3. From the Setup utility main menu, select Boot Manager.
