For Fujitsu integrated Remote Management Controllers (iRMC), the default credentials depend on the generation of your server. Older systems often use a generic login, while newer models (specifically ) use unique, per-device passwords for security. Default Credentials by Version Standard (S2, ): Username: admin (case-sensitive) Password: admin (case-sensitive) Modern ( and newer): Username: admin
Password: Unique for each server. This individual password is found on the System ID card attached to the server chassis.
Note: The font on the ID card can be ambiguous (e.g., lowercase "l" vs. uppercase "I"); Fujitsu recommends using a smartphone barcode scanner on the card's label to avoid typos. How to Reset or Change a Forgotten Password
If the default admin/admin or the unique password from the ID card does not work, you can reset the password through the host operating system using the IPMI tool, which does not require a server reboot.
Access via Linux/ESXi:Use the ipmitool to force a new password for the admin user (index 2 is typically the default admin slot):ipmitool user set password 2 'NewPassword123!'
Access via Windows:Use Fujitsu’s IPMIVIEW utility to execute similar IPMI commands from the command prompt.
Access via BIOS/UEFI:Restart the server and enter the BIOS/UEFI Setup (usually by pressing F2 or F12). Navigate to the Server Mgmt or IPMI section where you can manually configure iRMC users and set new passwords. Password Policy Requirements ( )
Newer versions enforce strict password policies. A new password must typically meet these criteria: At least 12 characters. fujitsu irmc default password
Must include at least three of the following: lowercase letters, uppercase letters, digits, and special characters.
Troubleshooting Fujitsu iRMC Default Passwords If you are trying to log into a Fujitsu Integrated Remote Management Controller (iRMC) for the first time or after a factory reset, the default credentials you need depend heavily on the generation of your PRIMERGY server. Default Credentials by Version iRMC S2 to S5 (Older Models): Username: admin Password: admin (Case-sensitive) iRMC S6 (Current Models): Username: admin
Password: Unique for each server. It is based on the Serial Number of the system.
Where to find it: Check the System ID Card (pull-out tag) attached to the server chassis. It contains a printed default password and a barcode that you can scan with a smartphone to avoid typing errors. Login Troubleshooting
If the standard admin/admin or the serial-based password doesn't work:
Case Sensitivity: Both the username and password are case-sensitive. Ensure admin is entered in all lowercase.
New Password Requirements: For iRMC S6, any new password you set must be at least 12 characters long and include at least three of the following: lowercase, uppercase, digits, or special characters. In Configuration → Network → Access Control
Individualized Security: Starting with iRMC S6, Fujitsu implemented a "Force to change default password" policy, meaning you must update the credential immediately upon your first successful login. How to Reset if Locked Out
If you've forgotten a custom password, you can reset it using local access to the server operating system via the ipmitool utility:
For Linux/ESXi: Open a terminal and run:ipmitool user set password 2 (User ID '2' is typically the default admin account).
For Windows: Use the Fujitsu IPMIVIEW tool or the ServerView Suite.
Physical Reset: Some motherboards have a "Password Clear" jumper near the SATA ports that can be used to reset BIOS and management passwords.
Need help finding your serial number or ID card? You can usually locate it on a pull-out tab at the front or rear of your Fujitsu PRIMERGY server.

This process typically involves physically accessing the server motherboard.

✅ These are the factory defaults for most iRMC S2, S3, S4, S5, and newer versions unless changed by hardware customization or previous setup.
If the server was previously deployed in a production environment, the default password was likely changed for security compliance. You will need to recover the password from the previous administrator or reset the iRMC to factory settings (see below).
If the default admin/admin is active, an attacker can achieve full "BMC-level" compromise.
Security through obscurity helps. Change port 443 to something random like 13443.
