To Reset a System Password
If you have forgotten the User password or the Supervisor password, the server will continue
to function normally but you will not be able to access the Setup Utility.
If you have enabled the Password on Boot parameter and have forgotten both the User
password and the Supervisor password, you will not be able to reboot the server.
If you have forgotten the User password, you can use the Supervisor password to reset it for
you. However, if it is the Supervisor password that you have forgotten, you can only reset it
by clearing the hardware password dip switch.
To reset your password:
1. Perform the pre-installation instructions listed in Chapter 4.
2. Locate the dip switch (SW1) on the mainboard.
Go to Chapter 2 for a view of the mainboard layout.
3. Identify SW1-3 of the dip switch.
By default, SW1-3 is set to the Off position.
4. Set SW1-3 to the On position.
5. Reinstall the left-side cover as described in Chapter 4.
6. Reconnect only the power cord.
7. Turn on the server.
The system would have already cleared any reference to the lost password. Perform the
following steps to reset SW1-3 to its default position.
8. Power down the server and disconnect the power cable.
9. Remove the left-side cover as described in Chapter 4.
10. Repeat steps 2 through 3.
