Asset tag (18-byte identifier) and ownership tag (80-byte identifier displayed during POST).

 

 

See the Desktop Management Guide on the Documentation and Diagnostics CD for more

 

 

information.

 

Ownership Tag. This tag is a string that is displayed under the POST splash screen that may

 

 

be used to identify the owner of the computer.

 

Chassis serial number or Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) number. The UUID can only be

 

 

updated if the current chassis serial number is invalid. (These ID numbers are normally set in

 

 

the factory and are used to uniquely identify the system.)

DriveLock Security

Allows you to assign or modify a master or user password for hard drives. When this feature is

 

enabled, the user is prompted to provide one of the DriveLock passwords during POST. If neither

is successfully entered, the hard drive will remain inaccessible until one of the passwords is successfully provided during a subsequent cold-boot sequence.
