To access the redundant ROM, set S1, S5 and S6 to On.
When the system maintenance S6 switch is set to the On position, the system will erase all system
configuration settings from both CMOS and NVRAM on the next reboot. Clearing CMOS, NVRAM, or both
deletes configuration information. Be sure to configure the server properly to prevent data loss.
