Using the System Setup Program
If you do not enter the correct password in three attempts, the system lets you view, but not modify, the
System Setup screens—with the following exception: If
System Password is not set to Enabled and is not
locked through the Password Status option, you can assign a system password (however, you cannot
disable or change an existing system password).
NOTE:
You can use the Password Status option in conjunction with the Setup Password option to protect the
system password from unauthorized changes.
Deleting or Changing an Existing Setup Password
1
Enter the System Setup program and select the System Security option.
2
Highlight the Setup Password option, press <Enter> to access the setup password window, and press
<Enter> twice to clear the existing setup password.
The setting changes to Not Enabled .
3
If you want to assign a new setup password, perform the steps in "Assigning a Setup Password" on
page 45.
Disabling a Forgotten Password
See "Disabling a Forgotten Password" on page 144.
Baseboard Management Controller Configuration
The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) enables configuring, monitoring, and recovery of
systems remotely. BMC provides the following features:
• Uses the system’s serial port and integrated NIC
• Fault logging and SNMP alerting
• Access to system event log and sensor status
• Control of system functions including power on and off
• Support is independent of the system’s power or operating state
• Provides text console redirection for system setup, text-based utilities, and operating system consoles
NOTE:
To remotely access the BMC through the integrated NIC, you must connect the network connection to
integrated NIC1. See Figure 1-4.
For additional information on using BMC, see the documentation for the BMC and systems
management applications.
