Server orders that do not include the SKU P08040-B21 will continue to receive their servers with randomized passwords. All customers using this SKU will receive their systems with the same password. Ordering this SKU with the server will instruct the factory NOT to randomize the password and set a HPE defined common password. However, some customers that onboard large numbers of servers view this as an impediment to automation.Ĭustomers who prefer to get their servers with a well-defined or common default iLO password, may now order SKU P08040-B21 along with their servers. Using the randomized password is a security best practice. The default password is used for the initial login and is restored when iLO is Reset to Defaults. The randomized string which is the initial password for the iLO is printed on the iLO Default Network Settings Tag.
