Password Guidelines
Consider these guidelines when you create a password:
• Use secure passwords for your storage array. A password should be easy for
you to remember but difficult for others to determine. Consider using
numbers or special characters in the place of letters, such as a 1 in the
place of the letter
I,
or the at sign (@) in the place of the letter
a
.
• For increased protection, use a long password with at least 15
alphanumeric characters. The maximum password length is 30 characters.
• Passwords are case sensitive.
• For security reasons, you can attempt to enter a password only ten times
before the storage array enters a lockout state. Before you can try to enter a
password again, you must wait ten minutes for the storage array to reset.

Perform this procedure when you have lost or forgotten your password and
you need to reset it.
