Set Power On Password
Use this option to set a password for accessing the server during the boot process. When you are powering-
on the server, a prompt appears where you enter the password to continue. To disable or clear the password,
enter the password followed by a / (slash) when prompted to enter the password.
NOTE:
In the event of an Automatic Server Recovery (ASR) reboot, the power-on password is bypassed and the
server boots normally.
