Upgrading The Bios; Clearing The Password; Figure 17. Password Clear Jumper - Intel SE7520AF2 User Manual

Upgrading the BIOS

Follow the instructions in the Readme file that came with the BIOS upgrade. When the update
completes, remove the bootable media from which you performed the upgrade.
✏
NOTES
Do not power down the system during the BIOS update process! The system
will reset automatically when the BIOS update process is completed.
You may encounter a CMOS Checksum error or other problem after reboot. If this
happens, shut down the system and boot it again. CMOS checksum errors require
that you enter Setup, check your settings, save your settings, and exit Setup.

Clearing the Password

If the user or administrator password(s) is lost or forgotten, moving the Password Clear jumper into
the "erase" position removes both passwords. The Password Clear jumper must be restored to its
original position before a new password(s) can be set. The password clear jumper is located on
jumper block J1D1.
1. Power down the system and disconnect the AC power.
2. Open the server chassis.
3. Move the jumper from pins 5 and 6 to the Erase position, covering pins 6 and 7 as indicated in
the following diagram.
