To set the keyboard language:

1At the main ESX Server 3i host screen (see Figure 6 or Figure 7), press <F2> to enter the configuration screen.

2Scroll down to Configure Keyboard, and then press <Enter>.

3Select your keyboard language, then press the <ESC> key several times to log out of the DCUI.

Password Configuration

The DCUI supports the configuration of a password to control access to the ESX host settings; Dell strongly recommends setting a password to ensure only authorized persons gain access to your ESX host.
