To resume activity: Enter the correct password(s).
To control access to setting or changing the system configuration, set an
administrator password and enable it through Setup.
If both the administrator and user passwords are enabled, either can be used to
boot the server or enable the keyboard and/or mouse, but only the administrator
password will allow Setup to be changed.
To disable a password, change it to a blank entry or press CTRL-D in the Change
Password menu of the Administrator Password Option menu found in the Security
subsystem group.
To clear the password if you cannot access Setup, change the Clear Password
jumper (see Table 20).
To control access to using the system, set a user password and enable it through
Setup.
To disable a password, change it to a blank entry or press CTRL-D in the Change
Password menu of the User Password Option menu found in the Security
Subsystem Group.
To clear the password if you cannot access Setup, change the Clear Password
jumper (see Table 20).
The system can boot with or without a keyboard. During POST, before the system
completes the boot sequence, the BIOS automatically detects and tests the
keyboard if it is present and displays a message.
The sequence that you specify in Setup will determine the boot order. If secure
mode is enabled (a user password is set), you will be prompted for a password
before the server fully boots. If secure mode is enabled and the "Secure Boot
Mode" option is also enabled, the server will fully boot but will require a password
before accepting any keyboard or mouse input.
