Configuring the server 37
The keyboard and mouse remain locked until you enter the
correct password.
You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A–
Z, a–z, and 0–9) for the power-on password. Keep a record
of the 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:
• 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”.
• Remove the battery and then install the battery.
Setting the password override switch:
When a
power-on password is set, POST does not complete until
you enter the password. If you forget the power-on pass-
word, you can regain access to the server by changing the
position of switch 8 on the system board to bypass the
power-on password check. You can then start the Configu-
ration/Setup Utility program and change the power-on pass-
word. For the location of the password override switch, see
Table 6 on page 43.
