Using passwords
The System Security choice appears only on the full Configuration/Setup Utility
menu. After you select this choice, you can implement two levels of password
protection: power-on password and administrator password. The administrator
password is available only if the optional IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter is
installed in your server.
Power-on password
After you set a power-on password, you can enable the Unattended Start mode.
This locks the keyboard and mouse but enables the operating system to start. The
keyboard and mouse remain locked until you type the correct password.
