Using passwords

From the System Security choice, you can set, change, and delete the supervisor password. You can also set when this password needs to be entered. If you set the password to Power-on, you must type the password to complete the system startup. Setting the password to Setup restricts access to the Configuration/Setup Utility program.

You can use any combination of up to six characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for the password. Keep a record of your password in a secure place.

If you forget the password, change the position of the power-on password clear switch (switch 2 on switch block S6H1 on the I/O board) to clear the power-on password. Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the blade server from the BladeCenter unit to access the switches. After you change the position of the switch, you can start the Configuration/Setup Utility program and change the power-on password the next time the server is turned on. Move the switch back to the previous position after the password is changed. See “Switches and jumpers” on page 38 for the location of switch block 2.

Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD

The ServerGuide™ Setup and Installation CD includes an easy-to-use setup and installation program that is designed for your IBM blade server. The ServerGuide program detects the blade server model and hardware options that are installed and uses that information during setup to configure the hardware. The ServerGuide program simplifies operating-system installations by providing updated device drivers and, in some cases, installing them automatically.

Note: The ServerGuide program works only with 32-bit Windows operating systems.
