Unable to read damaged VC toe tag label, how to restore VC default password?
Hoa needed to reset the password on a Virtual Connect module:
*************
I can't read the default password,so the restore procedure is useless. Is there another way to recover the password by other means? One module VC domain.
***********
Info from Jim:
***************
Did you look on top of the module? They stated adding stickers incase Toe Tag was lost.
I don't know if they changed it, but I know at one time if you lost the default password there was no recovery - the module was then only good to be used as the secondary module since you don't interact with it.
************
Good input from Mark:
****************
set the dip switch to password override
Switch 1 - On
Switch 2 - Off
Switch 3 - Off
Switch 4 - Off
Login to OA CLI
Connect interconnect 1
Reset the Bay 1 via the OA
During the boot the TOE Tag password is printed out to console.
Basically password override does 2 things.
Setting the dip switch to “Password Overirde” does 2 things:
(1) Makes the Administrator login the TOE TAG password (clears the configured Administrator password)
(2) Prints the password during the Boot up of the module. (follow the instructions to get to that via the OA CLI)
