- System Partition Visibility Select this choice to specify whether the System Partition is to be visible or hidden. - Integrated System Management Processor Settings Select this choice to enable or disable the Reboot on System NMI option on the menu. If you enable this option, the blade server will automatically restart 60 seconds after the service processor issues a nonmaskable interrupt (NMI) to the blade server. • Save Settings Select this choice to save the changes you have made in the settings. • Restore Settings Select this choice to cancel the changes you have made in the settings and restore the previous settings. • Load Default Settings Select this choice to cancel the changes you have made in the settings and restore the factory settings. • Exit Setup Select this choice to exit from the Configuration/Setup Utility program. If you have not saved the changes you have made in the settings, you are asked whether you want to save the changes or exit without saving them. Using passwords From the System Security choice, you can set, change, and delete a power-on password. If you set a power-on password, you must type the power-on password to complete the system startup and to have 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. Keep a record of your password in a secure place. If you forget the power-on password, you can regain access to the blade server through one of the following methods: • Remove the blade server battery and then reinstall it (see "Replacing the battery" on page 41). • Change the position of the power-on password override switch (switch 8 on switch block 2 on the system board) to bypass the power-on password check the next time the blade server is turned on. You can then start the Configuration/Setup Utility program and change the power-on password. You do not have to move the switch back to the previous position after the password is overridden. See Figure 5 on page 16 for the location of switch block 2. ✏ NOTE Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the blade server from the SBCE unit to access the switches. 52 Intel Server Compute Blade SBX82 Installation and User's Guide
