The password must be from 6 to 20 characters. You can use any combination of ASCII printable
characters 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 (see “Removing the battery” on page 76 and “Installing the
battery” on page 77) or by using the power-on password override switch (see “System-board switches”
on page 13).
An administrator password is intended to be used by a system administrator; it limits access to the full
Setup utility menu.
Attention: If you set an administrator password and then forget it, there is no way to change, override, or
remove it. You must replace the system board.

Using the PXE boot agent utility program
Use the Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) boot agent utility program to select the boot protocol and
other boot options and to select a power-management option.
Notes:
1. The blade server does not support Remote Program Load (RPL) selection for the boot protocol option.
2. Enabling PXE might reduce the number of optional expansion modules that your blade server can
manage.
To start the PXE boot agent utility program, complete the following steps:
1. Turn on the blade server (see “Turning on the blade server” on page 11).
2. When the
Broadcom NetXtreme Boot Agent vX.X.X
prompt is displayed, press Ctrl + S. You have 2
seconds (by default) to press Ctrl + S after the prompt is displayed.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to change the settings of the selected items.
Using the Boot Selection Menu program
The Boot Selection Menu program is a built-in, menu-driven configuration utility program that you can use to
temporarily redefine the first startup device without changing settings in the Setup utility.
To use the Boot Selection Menu program, complete the following steps:
Step 1. Turn off the blade server.
Step 2. Restart the blade server.
