Create a common iLO user name and
password for every node in the hardware
configuration. The password must have a
minimum of 8 characters by default, but
this value is configurable.
The user Administrator is predefined
by default, but you must create your own
user name and password. For security
purposes, HP recommends that you delete
the Administrator user.
You must use this user name and password
to access the console port.
