Figure 46. Set Passwords and Security Features
a. Set power-on password
This prevents unauthorized use of the server. After you set the power-on
password, a password prompt will appear on the display each time the
server is powered on.
To use the server, type the correct password at the password prompt
and then press Enter. If the password was not entered correctly, you will
see a message that says the password was incorrect and be prompted to
try again. If you do not enter the correct password after three tries, you
must turn the system off and then on again before further attempts are
possible.
Note
If you forget the power-on password, you can remove it by moving
jumper JMP1 on the system board. This jumper is located above the
memory connectors.
b. Change power-on password
This option displays the instructions for changing the current power-on
password which are:
1) Turn off the server and wait a few seconds; then turn it on.
2) When
Enter password
appears, type the current password followed by a space, the new
password followed by a space, and the new password again.
3) Press Enter.
