Using passwords

Use this information to set, change, or delete a power-on password.
You can set, change, and delete a power-on password in the Setup/Configuration
utility by selecting System Settings then System Security.
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 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
either by removing the blade server battery and then reinstalling it or by using the
power-on password override switch (see the Problem Determination and Service
Guide on the Documentation CD for instructions).
