Can you also check whether password reset jumper is installed on CMC. If password reset jumper is installed default user name and password will be functional. You can refer "Resetting Administrator Password" section from below user guide to get more details on this feature. [URL]
Hello, I recently brought a new m1000e chassis online with two cmc's running 4.5 firmware.  When I initially connected to the CMC it prompted me to change the default password, which I successfully did.  Now I am seeing some very strange behavior.  I am able to login with BOTH root / calvin and root / new_password.  I tried changing the password from racadm cli as well as the web gui.  No luck.  I have confirmed that there is no external authentication enabled, so local login is all that should be working.  To be honest, I do not even know where to start troubleshooting for such an odd issue.  I have never seen a single username work with two password combinations.  Perhaps someone can shed some light on this for me?  Please feel free to ask or comment anything that may be of use.  This is preventing me from moving forward with a build since I can't very well put a chassis in production with a default root password...  If I am not clear, or if anyone would like any more information whatsoever please do not hesitate to ask.  I would really like to get this resolved ASAP. Thank you in advance for any help provided.
