Set Privileged-Access Password: The privileged-access password protects
against the unauthorized starting of the system programs.
To set the privileged-access password, you must first change a jumper on your
server's system board. See Chapter 4, “Installing and Removing Options” on
page 4-1 to locate and change the password-enabling jumper.
If the password-enabling jumper has been changed, select Set privileged-access
password to set and verify the privileged-access password.
Attention:
1. Once the password-enabling jumper has been changed and the
privileged-access password has been set, great care must be taken to preserve
the privileged-access password.
If you set the privileged-access password and
later misplace it, your server must be returned for service.
To prevent loss of system use, record the privileged-access password
immediately whenever it is changed.
2. If no user-defined boot-list exists, and the privileged-access password has been
enabled, you are asked for the privileged-access password at startup every time
you boot your server.
Moving the password-enabling jumper back to the default position does not disable
or erase the privileged-access password. Removing the jumper or moving the
jumper back to the default position only prohibits changing or disabling this password
with the System Management Services. Removing the battery does not affect the
state of the privileged-access password.
If you previously had set a privileged-access password and want to remove it, select
Remove Privileged-Access Password.
