Question
How do you reset the iLo password?
Answer
To reset the iLo password from a host console, do the following:
1. Reboot the host.
2. Watch the console closely while the host is rebooting. Press F8 when prompted to enter the iLo menu. (If you press F8 too late, the system will not enter the iLo menu and will continue booting. In that case, reboot again.)
3. On the iLo menu, select User.
4. Select Edit for Administrator user. A screen appears to allow you to set a new iLo password.
5. Make sure that all the other options for Administrator are set to Yes. Then select Confirm to confirm your changes.
6. On the iLo menu, select File.
7. Select Exit.
