jumper, passwords can only be set or cleared by changing them explicitly in BIOS Setup or by 
similar means. No method of resetting BIOS configuration settings to default values will affect 
either the Administrator or User passwords. 
To clear the password, perform the following steps: 
1.  Power down the server. For safety, unplug the power cords. 
2.  Remove the system top cover. 
3.  Move the “Password Clear” jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 
and 2) to the password clear position (covering pins 2 and 3). 
4.  Reinstall the system top cover and reattach the power cords. 
5.  Power up the server and access the <F2> BIOS Setup utility. 
6.  Verify the password clear operation was successful by viewing the Error Manager screen. 
Two errors should be logged: 
5221  Passwords cleared by jumper 
5224  Password clear jumper is set 
7.  Exit the BIOS Setup utility and power down the server. For safety, remove the AC power 
cords. 
8.  Remove the system top cover and move the “Password Clear” jumper back to the default 
operating position (covering pins 1 and 2). 
9.  Reinstall the system top cover and reattach the AC power cords. 
10. Power up the server. 
The password is now cleared and can be reset by going into the BIOS setup. 
8.2  Integrated BMC Force Update Procedure 
When performing the standard Integrated BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility 
places the Integrated BMC into an update mode, allowing the firmware to load safely onto the 
flash device. In the unlikely event the Integrated BMC firmware update process fails due to the 
Integrated BMC not being in the proper update state, the server board provides an Integrated 
BMC Force Update jumper, which forces the Integrated BMC into the proper update state. The 
following procedure should be completed in the event the standard Integrated BMC firmware 
update process fails.  
1.  Power down and remove the AC power cord. 
2.  Open the server chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation. 
3.  Move jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the enabled 
position (covering pins 2 and 3). 
4.  Close the server chassis. 
5.  Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.
