Power-on password
Select this choice to set a power-on password.
You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for your
power-on password. Keep a record of your password in a secure place. If you forget
the power-on password, you can regain access to the server through one of the
following methods:
• If an administrator password has been set, enter the administrator password at
the power-on prompt. (If necessary, see “Administrator password” on page 16
for details.) Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program and change the
power-on password.
• Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program, and change the power-on
password.
• Change the position of the password-override switch as described in “Setting
the password-override switch”.
