							8 Configuring password security and
resetting CMOS
This chapter describes how to configure password security and to reset CMOS, and includes these
topics:
Topics
Preparing to configure passwords on page 211
Resetting the password jumper on page 212
Clearing and Resetting the CMOS on page 212
Preparing to configure passwords
The Computer Setup (F10) Utility enables you to create setup and power-on passwords.
There are three possibilities for setting passwords:
●Define a setup password only
●Define a power-on password only
●Define both
When defining a setup password only, you cannot enter the setup utility without the password.
No password is needed to start from power-on.
When defining a power-on password only, the power-on password is needed to enter F10 Setup or to
start from power-on.
When defining both, the setup password is needed to enter F10 setup and can be used to start from
power-on.
The power-on password cannot be used to enter the F10 Setup Utility, but it can be used to start from
power-on.
One of the passwords will be required to start from power on.
After you create both passwords, you can use the setup password in place of the power-on password
as an override to log into the workstation (a useful feature for a network administrator).
NOTE:You can only clear the passwords with the password jumper. Clearing CMOS does not clear
the passwords.
CAUTION:Before pressing the Clear CMOS button, back up the workstation CMOS settings.
Pressing the Clear CMOS button resets CMOS values to factory defaults and erases customized
information, asset numbers, and special settings.
To back up the CMOS settings, run the Computer Setup (F10) Utility and select Save to Diskette from
the File menu.

							Resetting the password jumper
Use the following procedure to disable the power-on or setup password features and clear the power-
on and setup passwords.
WARNING!To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock and hot surfaces, disconnect
the power cord from the wall outlet and let the internal system components to cool before touching.
CAUTION:When the workstation is plugged in, the power supply has voltage applied to the , even
when the workstation is turned off. Failure to disconnect the power cord can result in damage to the
workstation.
CAUTION:Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the workstation or optional
equipment. Before beginning these procedures, be sure that you are discharged of static electricity by
briefly touching a grounded metal object.
1.Shut down the operating system, power off the workstation and external devices, and disconnect
the workstation power cord and external devices from power outlets.
2.Disconnect the keyboard, monitor, and other external devices that are connected to the
workstation.
3.Remove the access panel.
4.Locate the password header and jumper.

5.Verify that the AC power cord is disconnected from the power outlet.
The password jumper is green so it can be easily identified.
6.Remove the jumper from pins 1 and 2.
7.Restart the workstation to the point where you get video.
8.Shut down the workstation, and then replace the jumper to clear the passwords.
9.Replace the access panel.
10.Reconnect the external equipment.
11.Connect AC power to the workstation, power on the workstation, and then boot to the F10 (Setup)
Utility.
12.To create new passwords, repeat steps 1 through 8, and then create the new passwords using the
F10 (Setup) Utility.
Clearing and Resetting the CMOS
This section describes the steps necessary to successfully clear and reset the CMOS. The CMOS of
the workstation stores password information and information about the workstation configuration.
