Modify Default Password for root
Account at First
Login
To enable first-time login and access to Oracle ILOM, a preconfigured
Administrator root
account and a default password
(changeme
) are provided with the system. To prevent
unauthorized access to Oracle ILOM, the default password
(changeme
) that is shipped with the preconfigured
root
account must be changed at first login.
Otherwise, the preconfigured root
account and default
password (changeme
) will act as a shared account,
enabling administrator access to any user.
Use the following web-based instructions to modify the default password
(changeme
) that is shipped with the preconfigured
Administrator root
account.
Note:
If you do not have access to the preconfiguredroot
account and you require access to
Oracle ILOM administrator features, contact your system administrator for a user
account with administrator privileges.

A strong password should contain a combination of lowercase and uppercase characters, and at least one special character such as % or $. - The User Management (u) role is required to modify local user account passwords in Oracle ILOM.
