Hi Durga,

please refer to page no 82 DL585 service and maintenance guide.
https://extras.csc.fi/mgrid/docs/hp/dl585_maintenance.pdf

System maintenance switch (SW3)
Position 5
on / off

disabling the power on password will clear off the password and allow you to log into RBSU (system bios) to remove/change/define power on password/Setup password again. however, it will work only when you revert the switch.

please don't forget to assign points if you think information provided is helpful :)

cheers!
