<div><p>Use this information to understand the basic concepts of the system
password and how it relates to software installation.</p>
<p>Support exists to detect processor model changes on all <span><span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> server
models</span> through the use of a 16-character system password. The system
password identifies all model changes to help maintain the quality and integrity
of the <span><span class="keyword">iSeries</span> server</span>.
The system password also ensures the protection of IBM's intellectual property,
including IBM<sup>®</sup> <span class="keyword">Licensed Internal Code</span> and licensed programs.</p>
<p>New <span>servers from the factory come</span> with the correct system password
already installed. A new system password is required for each model change
or for conditions that indicate probable change of ownership. If you do not
have the system password at the first IPL, contact your marketing representative
to place an <span><span class="keyword">iSeries</span></span> system
password RPQ (Request for Price Quotation) order. IBM manufacturing receives the RPQ order
and sends the system password to you for installation. If the correct system
password is not entered, you can select a system-password bypass period to
allow you to obtain the correct system password from your marketing representative.
If the correct password is not available and the bypass period expires, the
system will not complete the next IPL unless the correct password is installed.
While in bypass mode, the system uses operator messages to indicate the time
that remains until the bypass period expires.</p>
