or RAIDWatch Manager is used, you can only access the RAID
controller by providing the correct password.
IMPORTANT!
•
The controller verifies password when entering the main menu from the
initial screen or making configuration change. If the controller is going to
be left unattended, the “Password Validation Timeout” can be set to
“Always Check.” Setting validation timeout to “always check” will
protect the controller configuration from any unauthorized access.
•
The controller password and controller name share a 16-character space.
The maximum characters for the controller password is 15. When the
controller name occupies 15 characters, there is only one character left for
the controller password, and vice versa.
Changing the Password
To set or change the controller password, move the cursor bar to
“Change Password,” then press [ENTER].
If a password has previously been set, the controller will ask for the
old password first. If the password has not yet been set, the
controller will directly ask for the new password. The password can
not be replaced unless a correct old password is provided.
Key-in the old password, then press [ENTER]. If the password is
incorrect, it will not allow you to change the password. Instead, it
will display the message “Password incorrect!,” then go back to the
previous menu.
If the password is correct, or there is no preset password, it will ask
for the new password.
Setting a New Password
Enter the desired password in the column, then press [ENTER]. The
next dialog box will display “Re-Enter Password”. Enter the
password again to confirm and press [ENTER].
