Any way to show DCUI on a secondary monitor?

I'm trying to figure out how I can display the DCUI (and other ESXi consoles -- Alt+F#) on a different/secondary monitor.  Does anyone know of a setting to do this?  Normally, I would just simply change the primary display in BIOS, but that isn't currently an option for me at this time.  So, I'm trying to think outside the box on how to solve my problem (Help Needed, NUC 9, NVIDIA Quadro P2200, VMware ESXi, Code 43 error : homelab ).

Hey, hope you are doing fine.

Do you have any sort of IPMI/remote console?

I have an Intel NUC with AMT, but AMT Remote Desktop will only show video from the integrated graphics.  Because of the problem I'm currently running into, I have to configure BIOS to use the discrete graphics as "primary" so I was hoping there was something I could change at the ESXi level to have ESXi use the integrated graphics as its display.  The discrete graphics will be used for PCI passthrough and will therefore be unavailable for use by ESXi as a display adapter.
