Using passwords

From the System Security choice, you can set, change, and delete a power-on
password.
If you set a power-on password, you must type the power-on password to complete
the system startup and to have access to the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu.
You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for the
password. Keep a record of your password in a secure place.
If you forget the power-on password, you can regain access to the blade server by
removing the blade server battery and then reinstalling it. (See the Problem
Determination and Service Guide for your blade server for more information about
replacing the battery.)
