Dell Chassis Management Controller Version 1.3 for PowerEdge FX2/FX2s User's Guide

Modifying root user administrator account settings

For added security, it is strongly recommended that you change the default password of the root (User 1) account. The root account is the default administrative account that is shipped with CMC.

To change the default password for the root account:

  1. In the left pane, click Chassis Overview, and then click User Authentication.
  2. On the Users page, in the User ID column, click 1.
    • NOTE: The user ID 1 is the root user account that is shipped by default with CMC. This cannot be changed.
  3. On the User Configuration page, select the Change Password option.
  4. Type the new password in the Password field, and then type the same password in Confirm Password.
  5. Click Apply. The password is changed for the 1 user ID.
