Administrator password
Select this choice to set an administrator password. The administrator password
provides access to all choices on the Configuration/Setup Utility main menu. You
can set, change, or delete both the administrator and power-on passwords and
allow a power-on password to be changed by the user. You can use any
combination of up to seven characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for your administrator
password. Keep a record of your password in a secure place. The administrator
password is available only if the optional IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter is
installed in your server.
Attention: If an administrator password is set and then forgotten, it cannot be
overridden or removed. You must replace the system board.
The following table provides a summary of the password features.

only RAID level-1. Installing an optional ServeRAID-5i controller provides
additional RAID levels. See “Using ServeRAID Manager” on page 26 for
information about configuring your server for RAID operation.
2. If you install a different type of RAID adapter in your server, use the
configuration method supplied with the RAID adapter to view or change SCSI
settings for attached devices.
