Additional commands are available for system diagnosis and other complex tasks. These

SRM Console Security Features
Console security features, which restrict access to certain console commands, are intended
to prevent unauthorized users from modifying system parameters or otherwise tampering
with the system from the console. The SRM console supports two modes:
•
Secure mode allows access only to specific console commands:
start,
continue, boot
(with stored parameters), and
login
.
•
User mode allows access to all SRM console commands.
__________________________ Note _____________________________
The security features work only if access to the system hardware is controlled.
Be sure to keep the front panel of the system locked and the key secure.
