IBM BladeCenter PS703 and PS704 Technical Overview and Introduction
Figure 5-6 shows the PS703 server after the discovery process has been completed. After
discovery the next step is to request access.

5.4.5 Request Access to Server
After discovery but before the SDMC can start managing the server, access must be
requested. Initial access is requested by clicking the No access link shown in Figure 5-6.
This link will take you to the page that allows you to enter an HMC password as shown in
Figure 5-7.
If you have not set a password previously, you can enter a new one here which
will be used from now on.

After requesting access you should see Access identified as OK as shown in Figure 5-8 on
page 163.
Tip: Remember the password for the initial HMC access request! If a server is removed
from the SDMC and later added back, the same password that was set during the initial
access request must be reused.
