PC Server 315 - Removing an Unknown Power-On / Administrator Password
Applicable to: World-Wide
The following procedure outlines how to remove an unknown (or forgotten) power-on password.
ATTENTION:
This procedure erases the current server configuration. Be sure to record the server configuration before performing this procedure. You must reconfigure the server after you move the password jumper. The administrator and power-on password share the same jumper, known as the password jumper.
1. Power-off the server.
2. Locate the password jumper (PWD) in the system-board illustration in "System Board." The jumper settings are shown in the following illustration.
3. Change the jumper's position:
a. Lift the jumper straight off the pin block.
b. Align the holes in the bottom of the jumper with the center pin and
the pin that was not covered previously.
c. Slide the jumper over these pins.
This procedure removes the password.
4. Wait one minute; then, move the jumper back to its original position. You are now able to set a new password.
To set a new power-on password, follow the instructions in "Setting a Power-on Password."
