Configuration: About Your Storage Array 69
Setting a Password
You can configure each storage array with a password to protect it from
unauthorized access. MDSM prompts for the password when an attempt is
made to change the storage array configuration, such as, when a virtual disk is
created or deleted. View operations do not change the storage array
configuration and do not require a password. You can create a new password
or change an existing password.
NOTE: It is recommended that you use a long password with at least 15
alphanumeric characters to increase security.
To set a new password or change an existing password:
