Password

The Password Management pane displays the current Reset Password Option set for the system. The Reset Password

Option can be:

•

Service Tag Only

•

Service Tag and Administrator Email

NOTE: To select the option Service Tag and Administrator Email, you must first configure the e-mail relay host

and administrator contact e-mail.

In the Password Management pane you can edit the current password and edit the password reset options.

Email Relay Host

The Email Relay Host pane displays the current email relay host configured for the DR Series system. The Email Relay

Host pane title acts as a link to the Email Relay Host page:

•

This page lists the configured email relay host by its IP address or hostname that is responsible for email in the DR

Series system. The Email Relay Host page provides the Add Relay Host option (which after you configure it, this

option changes to Edit Relay Host).

Date and Time

The Date and Time pane displays the current Mode configured for the DR Series system (Manual or NTP), the current

Time Zone, and the current Date and Time (in mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss format, for example: 12/11/12 14:58:22 PST). The Date

and Time pane title acts as a link to the Date and Time page:

•

This page contains a Settings pane that lists the Mode used. The system uses Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers

if the system is part of a workgroup and not joined to an Active Directory Services (ADS) domain. If the system is

joined to an ADS domain, then the NTP servers setting is disabled and the system uses the ADS domain time. The

Settings pane also displays the current Time Zone, and current Date and Time. The Date and Time page provides the

Edit option for changing the date and time settings.

NOTE: Dell recommends using the Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers when the DR Series system is part of a

workgroup and not part of a domain. The NTP time mode is disabled when the DR Series system is joined to an

Active Directory Services (ADS) domain. Any attempt to enable the NTP time mode when you are joined to an ADS

domain displays an error message indicating this is not possible.
