System administration and control
83
Using passwords
If you set and enable a user password but not an administrator password, enter
the user password to boot the system with limited BIOS Setup access.
If you set and enable both a user and an administrator password:
■
Enter either one to boot the server and enable the keyboard and mouse
■
Enter the administrator password to gain full access to the BIOS Setup
to change the system configuration
Secure mode
Configure and enable the secure boot mode by using the BIOS Setup. When
secure mode is in effect, you:
■
Can boot the system and run the OS, but you must enter the user
password to use the keyboard or mouse
■
Cannot turn off system power or reset the system from the front panel
switches
Taking the system 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 power off when secure mode is later removed.
However, if the front panel power switch remains depressed when secure
mode is removed, the system will power off.
