feature.

on assigning a setup password and using or changing an existing
setup password.
Password Status Setting the Setup Password option to Enabled prevents the system
password from being changed or disabled at start-up.

using the System Password option and the system password cannot
be disabled at start-up by pressing <Ctrl><Enter>.

Setup Password field and then change the Password Status option
to Unlocked. In this state, you can disable the system password at

Power Button Enables or disables the server module’s power button.
If you turn off the server module using the power button and you
are using an ACPI-compliant operating system, the server module
can perform an orderly shutdown before power is turned off.
If the server module is not running an ACPI-compliant operating
system, power is turned off immediately after the power button is
pressed.
The button is enabled in the System Setup program. When
disabled, the button can only turn on server module power.
AC Power Recovery

If the option is set to Last, the server module returns to the last
power state. On turns on the server module after power is restored.
When set to Off, the server module remains off after power is
restored.
