Hey there, I am assuming you need to reset admin password as you have lost it?
Steps are many, so if you can get hold of T-2000 manual look at Appendix A, but here is step by step:


1. Connect to the SC serial port and be ready to press the ESC key.
2. unplug all power from the T2000
3. You must be quick to complete the next step....
4. plug 1 or both power cords in then run to the console.
5. Within 5-10 seconds of power, keep pressing ESC until you see a short menu appear
6. press "e" to erase ALOM NVRAM settings
7. press "r" to continue booting with the ALOM reset to factory defaults.
8. Reconfigure ALOM to your required settings.
