11.2.2 Set or Change Password

You can configure each storage subsystem with a password to protect it from unauthorized
access. If password protection is enabled, you will be prompted for the password when
changing the configuration, such as when you create or delete a logical drive. View
operations do not require a password to be entered. To disable password protection, follow
the process described here, enter the current password, and leave the New password and
Confirm password text boxes blank.
Note: If you forget your password, contact IBM Technical Support
Passwords are case sensitive
The maximum length is 30 characters
Spaces included in a password are saved
For security reasons, you can attempt to enter a password ten times before the DS3000
storage subsystem enters a "lockout" state. Before you can try to enter a password again,
you must wait ten minutes for the "lockout" state to be reset.
