Greetings,
I have upgraded the UCS-C220M3 server using ucs-c220-huu-2.0.13o.iso. I mounted this iso file to KVM DVD and upgraded it. After the upgrade, I am unable to log in to CIMC with my previous password or default passwords. Moreover, I tried to reset the default user(password) in F8 CIMC Configuration Utility but it doesn't work.
Note: this is a Lab environment.
Please advise

Dear Josh, I believe the manufacturing country would be US and it's year is 2015. I have tried to enter other credentials as well like Cisco1234, cisco1234, Password and Password. Moreover, I tried to reset the IMC password by moving the J40 Jumper from pin 1&2 to 2&3 but nothing happens.
After the upgrade in F8 Screen, I get to see the CIMC Configuration Menu two pages. First page is for Network Settings and Second is for Credentials. I tried to reset to factory defaults but didn't get access. I tried to set a custom user password but that didn't work either.
At the moment I am not infront of the Console. I'll get back to you once I entered the password you mentioned tomorrow.

Hello folks,
I am having the same issue as the original poster. I didn't see a final resolution. Can I get some help? I'm in teaching lab and have been locked out of all 3 of my c220 M3 servers. I am on firmware version 2.0(13o) as well. I've heard thru the grapevine this is a known problem with this firmware version. No amount of resetting CIMC and all of the above passwords work. I can not log in to CIMC GUI no matter what I do therefore I can not upgrade to get rid of this error. I've also tried the jumper method to no avail. Does anyone have a solution? I think there is a solution but no amount of googling supplies me an answer. HELP
