System Overview 1-27
Using Passwords
You can set either the user password, the supervisor password, or both passwords. If only the
user password is set, you:
!
Must enter the user password to enter BIOS Setup.
!
Must enter the user password to boot the server if Password on Boot is enabled in either
the BIOS Setup.
!
Must enter the user password to exit secure mode.
If only the supervisor password is set, you:
!
Must enter the supervisor password to enter BIOS Setup.
!
Must enter the supervisor password to boot the server if Password on Boot is enabled in
either the BIOS Setup.
!
Must enter the supervisor password to exit secure mode.
If both passwords are set, you:
!
May enter the user password to enter BIOS Setup. However, you will not be able to
change many of the options.
!
Must enter the supervisor password if you want to enter BIOS Setup and have access to
all of the options.
!
May enter either password to boot the server if Password on Boot is enabled in either the
BIOS Setup.
!
May enter either password to exit secure mode.
Secure Mode
Configure and enable the secure boot mode by using the BIOS Setup. When secure mode is in
effect:
!
You can boot the server and the operating system will run, but you must enter the user
password to use the keyboard or mouse.
!
You cannot turn off system power or reset the server from the front panel switches.
Secure mode has no effect on functions enabled via remote server management or power control
via the watchdog timer.
Taking the server out of secure mode does not change the state of system power. That is, if you
press and release the power switch while secure mode is in effect, the system will not be
powered off when secure mode is later removed. However, if the front panel power switch
remains depressed when secure mode is removed, the server will be powered off.
