Step 2.
On the Login page, type the user name and password. If you are using the IMM2 for the first time,
you can obtain the user name and password from your system administrator. All login attempts are
documented in the system-event log.
Note: The IMM2 is set initially with a user name of USERID and password of PASSW0RD (with a
zero, not the letter O). You have read and write access. You must change the default password the
first time you log in.
Step 3.
Click Log in to start the session. The System Status and Health page provides a quick view of the
system status.
Note: If you boot to the operating system while in the IMM2 GUI and the message "Booting OS or in
unsupported OS" is displayed under System Status ➙ System State, disable Windows 2008 or 2012
firewall or type the following command in the Windows 2008 or 2012 console. This might also affect blue-
screen capture features.
netsh advfirewall firewall set icmpsetting type=8 mode=ENABLE
By default, the icmp packet is blocked by Windows firewall. The IMM2 GUI will then change to the "OS
booted" status after you change the setting as indicated above in both the Web and CLI interfaces.

Using the embedded hypervisor

The VMware ESXi embedded hypervisor software is available on the optional USB flash device or SD card
with embedded hypervisor.
The USB flash device can be installed in the USB hypervisor connector on the system board (see "System-
board internal connectors" on page 29 for the location of the connectors). The SD card can be inserted into
the SD adapter. Hypervisor is virtualization software that enables multiple operating systems to run on a host
system at the same time. The USB flash device or SD card is required to activate the hypervisor functions.
To start using the embedded hypervisor functions, you must add the USB flash device or SD card to the
startup sequence in the Setup Utility.
To add the USB flash device or SD card to the startup sequence, complete the following steps:
Step 1.
Turn on the server.
Note: Approximately 5 seconds after the server is connected to power, the power-control button
becomes active.
When the prompt <F1> Setup is displayed, press F1.
Step 2.
Step 3.
From the Setup Utility main menu, select Boot Manager.
Select Add Boot Option; then, select Generic Boot Option ➙ Embedded Hypervisor. Press
Step 4.
Enter, and then select Esc.
Step 5.
Select Change Boot Order ➙ Change the order. Use the Up arrow and Down Arrow keys to
select Embedded Hypervisor and use the plus (+) and minus (-) keys to move Embedded
Hypervisor in the boot order. When Embedded Hypervisor is in the correct location in the boot
order, press Enter. Select Commit Changes and press Enter.
Step 6.
Select Save Settings and then select Exit Setup.
If the embedded hypervisor flash device image becomes corrupt, go to
downloads
and follow the instructions on the screen.
