Using passwords
You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9) for the
power-on (user) password or the administrator password.
If you set a power-on password and an administrator password, you can type either
password at the password prompt that appears as you start the computer. However,
if you want to change the settings in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, you
must type the administrator password to access the full Configuration/Setup Utility
menu. If you type the power-on password, you have access to only the limited
Configuration/Setup Utility menu.
Keep a record of the password in a secure place. If you forget the power-on or
administrator password, you can regain access to the computer through one of the
following methods:
v If you have forgotten the power-on password and an administrator password is
set, type the administrator password at the power-on prompt. Start the
Configuration/Setup Utility program and change the power-on password.
v Remove the battery and then install the battery.
Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD
The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD contains a setup and installation
program that is designed for your server. The ServerGuide program detects the
server model and optional hardware devices that are installed and uses that
information during setup to configure the hardware. The ServerGuide program
simplifies operating-system installations by providing updated device drivers and, in
some cases, installing them automatically.
If the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD did not come with the server, you can
download the latest version of the ServerGuide program. You can download a free
image of the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD, or you can purchase the CD.
To download the image, go to the IBM ServerGuide Web page
athttp://www.ibm.com/pc/qtechinfo/MIGR-4ZKPPT.html. To purchase the latest
ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD, go to the ServerGuide fulfillment Web site
at http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/xseries/systems_management/serverguide/
sub.html.
The ServerGuide program has the following features:
v An easy-to-use interface
v Diskette-free setup, and configuration programs that are based on detected
hardware
v ServeRAID Manager program, which configures your ServeRAID adapter or
integrated SAS/SATA controller with RAID capabilities
v Device drivers that are provided for the server model and detected hardware
v File-system type that is selectable during setup
ServerGuide features
Features and functions can vary slightly with different versions of the ServerGuide
program. To learn more about the version that you have, start the ServerGuide
Setup and Installation CD and view the online overview. Not all features are
supported on all server models.
The ServerGuide program requires a supported IBM server with an enabled
startable (bootable) CD drive. In addition to the ServerGuide Setup and Installation
CD, you must have the operating-system CD to install the operating system.
