Erasing Forgotten Passwords
Notes:
1. The RAIDport connector is not used.
2. The configuration switches (1–8) are also known as rocker
switches. Their settings are specified later in this chapter.
3. An illustration of the system board and additional information
are provided on a label inside the server.
Using the Clear CMOS Request Jumper to Erase
Forgotten Passwords
Note: To set, change, or delete a password, see “System Security”
on page 32.
Your server uses complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)
memory on the system board for storing configuration and setup
information. CMOS memory maintains information about:
Date and time
Security features
Power-management devices
Storage devices
Keyboard and mouse
ISA legacy configuration information
Plug and Play configuration information
Port assignments
I/O addresses and interrupts
Other selectable features
Within the security features are the settings for the power-on and
administrator passwords. If you need to erase a lost or forgotten
administrator password, you must erase all configuration and setup
information by moving the jumper designated for CMOS memory.
Attention:
1. If enhanced security is enabled, and you forget or lose the
administrator password, you must replace the system board in
your server to regain access to the Configuration/Setup Utility
program. For more information, see “Using the Enhanced
Security Features” on page 36.
