IBM 206 User Manual

 

 

If

 

you

 

forget

 

the

 

user

 

or

 

supervisor

 

password,

 

you

 

can

 

change

 

the

 

pin

 

position

 

of

 

the

 

clear

 

CMOS

 

jumper

 

on

 

the

 

system

 

board

 

to

 

bypass

 

the

 

user

 

or

 

supervisor

 

password

 

check.

 

This

 

enables

 

you

 

to

 

reset

 

these

 

passwords.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The

 

 

 

 

 

CD

 

includes

 

an

 

easy-to-use

 

setup

 

and

 

installation

 

program

 

that

 

is

 

designed

 

for

 

your

 

IBM

 

server.

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.

 

 

The

 

ServerGuide

 

program

 

works

 

only

 

with

 

32-bit

 

Windows

 

operating

 

systems.

 

If

 

the

 

 

 

 

 

CD

 

did

 

not

 

come

 

with

 

your

 

server,

 

you

 

can
