About the BIOS Setup utility
The server BIOS has a built-in setup utility that lets you configure several basic 
system characteristics. The settings are stored in battery-backed RAM and are 
retained even when the power is off.
Enter the BIOS Setup utility by restarting the server, then pressing F2 when 
prompted during the startup process. The Main BIOS Setup utility screen 
opens. It may not look exactly like the screen shown below.
