You can specify which device will act as the boot device for each node. You have two options:
Temporarily select a boot device. To select a boot device for the node's current boot session, press the F8 key at the beginning of the system boot process to display the Boot Device Selection menu. Use the cursor keys to select a device for the current session and press Enter.
The following example shows the selection of the node's optional FMod.
Permanently set boot device order. To permanently set the order in which the system node looks for a boot device, press the F2 key at the beginning of the system boot process to enter the node's BIOS setup utility. Use the cursor keys to go to the Boot menu, and select the Boot Device Priority option to see a list of boot devices. The first device in the list will be used by the system as the primary boot device.
The following example shows the selection of the node's optional FMod.
Note - Even after setting the boot order in the BIOS, you can still use the temporary method described earlier in this topic to change the boot device for a boot session.
