Language:

Note - When a password is changed for any SuperCluster component that Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager manages (such as the Ethernet switch), you must also update the password in Oracle Engineered Systems Hardware Manager. For details, refer to the Oracle SuperCluster M8 and SuperCluster M7 Administration Guide.
