Setting a server agent password

• On the Adapter & Switch Management menu, click Set Server Agent Password.
• In the content pane’s topology map, right-click the server icon to select a specific server, and then
on the shortcut menu, click Set Server Agent Password.
The Set New Password for Server dialog box ( Figure 72 ) opens.
