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.
