Notes: 1. Before changing any switch settings or moving any jumpers, turn off the server; then, disconnect all power cords and external cables. (Review the information in "Safety information" on page 257 and "Turning off the server" on page 10). 2. Any system-board switch or jumper blocks that are not shown in the illustrations in this book are reserved. Administrator password If an administrator password is set, you must type the administrator password for access to the full Configuration/Setup Utility menu. You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A-Z, a-z, and 0-9) for the password. The Administrator password choice is on the Configuration/Setup Utility menu only if an IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter is installed. Attention: If you set an administrator password and then forget it, there is no way to change, override, or remove it. You must replace the system board. Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD includes an easy-to-use setup and installation program that is designed for your IBM server. The ServerGuide program detects the server model and hardware options 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. Note: If the server model came with an operating system, such as Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server or VMware ESX server, see the software documentation provided with your software for configuration information. If a later version of the ServerGuide program is available, 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 at http://www.ibm.com/pc/qtechinfo/MIGR-4ZKPPT.html.
