Setting the administrator password switch When you want to set, change, or delete an administrator password that is protected by enhanced security, you must first unlock the administrator password. To do this, change the setting of the administrator password switch from Locked to Unlocked. Before you begin: Read "Electrical safety" on page 70 and "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 71. Turn off the server and all other connected devices. Disconnect all external cables attached to the server; then, remove the server cover (see "Preparing to add options" on page 73). 1. Locate the configuration switches (also known as rocker switches) on the system board. For more information, refer to the label inside the server, or see "System Board Illustration" on page 253. 2. To lock or unlock the administrator password, set switch 7 as shown in the following illustration. It might be helpful to use the end of a small screwdriver to set the switch. Attention: The following illustration is for reference only. Before you change the settings for switch 7, be sure that you check the orientation of your server system board to correctly identify the switch number locations. If you change the settings for the wrong switches, you might seriously damage server components or options. Administrator Password Locked 12345678 ON OFF Administrator Password Unlocked 12345678 ON OFF 3. Move the switch to the ON position. 266 Netfinity 3000 User's Handbook
