Operating with a setup password enabled

If Setup Password is Enabled, enter the correct setup password before modifying most of the System
Setup options.
If you do not enter the correct password in three attempts, the system displays the message
Incorrect Password! Number of unsuccessful password attempts: <x> System
Halted! Must power down.
Even after you shut down and restart the system, the error message is displayed until the correct
password is entered. The following options are exceptions:
• If System Password is not Enabled and is not locked through the Password Status option, you can
assign a system password.
• You cannot disable or change an existing system password.
NOTE: You can use the Password Status option in conjunction with the Setup Password option to
protect the system password from unauthorized changes.

Embedded systems management

The Dell Lifecycle Controller provides advanced embedded systems management throughout the
server's lifecycle. The Lifecycle Controller can be started during the boot sequence and can function
independently of the operating system.
NOTE: Certain platform configurations may not support the full set of features provided by the
Lifecycle Controller.
For more information about setting up the Lifecycle Controller, configuring hardware and firmware, and
deploying the operating system, see the Lifecycle Controller documentation at dell.com/support/home.
