Secure Mode
Configure and enable the secure boot mode by using the SSU. When 
secure mode is in effect:
You can boot the server and the operating system will run, but you 
must enter the user password to use the keyboard or mouse.
You cannot turn off system power or reset the server from the 
front panel switches.
Secure mode has no effect on functions enabled via remote server 
management or power control via the watchdog timer.
Taking the server out of secure mode does not change the state of 
system power. That is, if you press and release the power switch while 
secure mode is in effect, the system will not be powered off when 
secure mode is later removed. However, if the front panel power 
switch remains depressed when secure mode is removed, the server 
will be powered off.
