Figure 21. Set Passwords and Security Features

Some of the features found on this panel are described below:

￿1￿ Set power-on password

This prevents unauthorized use of the server. After you set the power-on password, a password prompt will appear 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 you will be 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.

￿2￿ 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.The following message will appear:

Enter password

Type the current password followed by a space, the new password followed by a space, and the new password again.
