Administrative Password
If you have set an administrative password, you must enter it to use
System Configuration Utility functions that allow you to change
configuration data. Before you set an administrative password, you
might want to first set your drive-startup sequence, as described in
“Setting the Drive-Startup Sequence” on page 56.
If an administrative password is set and then forgotten, you can
clear the password from memory using a system board
configuration switch. Refer to “Clearing All Passwords (Switch
S6A1-2)” on page 301 for more information.
To set an administrative password in the Setup program:
1. Start the Setup program.
2. Select Set Administrative Password from the Security Menu
screen.
The Set Administrative Password screen appears.
3. Type a password in the Enter New Password data field.
Note: To remove an administrative password, press Enter when
the Enter New Password data field is blank.
4. Press Enter.
The cursor moves to the Confirm New Password data field.
5. To verify that you typed the correct password, type the
password in the Confirm New Password data field. If you did
not type the correct password, you must re-enter the password
in the Enter New Password data field. Return to step 3.
6. If you typed the correct password, press Enter to save it.
Note: To change an existing administrative password, follow steps 1
through 6.
The password becomes effective immediately after you save it.
