How to Recover from a Lost Password
You can use a local computer that connects to the Management Card through the serial port at the Management Card’s mounting bracket to access the control console.
1.Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service which uses that port.
2.Use the type 1 or type 2 serial cable as described in Local access to the control console to connect the selected port to the Management Card’s serial port.
3.Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal®), and configure the selected port for 2400 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control, and save the changes.
4.Press ENTER to display the User Name prompt.
5.Press the Reset button on the Management Card, which causes the Management Card to restart, a process that typically takes approximately 15 seconds.
6.Press ENTER as many times as necessary to redisplay the User Name prompt, then use apc for the user name and password. (If you take longer than 30 seconds to log on after the User Name prompt is redisplayed, you must start the login procedure again at step 4.)
7.From the Control Console menu, select System, then User Manager.
8.Select Administrator, and change the User Name and Password settings, both of which are now defined as apc.
9.Press
Reconnect any cable that you disconnected in step 2 and restart any service that you disabled in step 1.
