When you create a user account in Device Manager - Storage Navigator (HDvM - SN), you register the user to the applicable user groups with appropriate permissions. The storage system supports a maximum of 512 user accounts, including the built-in user accounts. To prevent unauthorized access to the storage system, users must change their password immediately after logging in for the first time.
CAUTION:
To create users for whom password change is requested at first login, set Require Password Change on First login to Yes in their password policy settings beforehand. If this option has not been set, password change is not requested at their first login even if you set Require Password Change on First login to Yes while creating the users.
Important: After the user accounts have been created, back up the user account information. If a controller failure or other problem occurs, recover from the failure and then restore the backup file. You will be able to use the user account information again after the backup file is restored.
- You must have the Security Administrator (View & Modify) role to perform this task.
- You or an authorized technical support representative can log in to HDvM - SN and CCI with user accounts that are created in HDvM - SN.
- To enable the Require Password Change on First Login function, you must select Yes on the User Account Policies window and also on either the Create User window or the Edit User window. If No is selected on the User Account Policies window, or if No is selected on both the Create User and Edit User windows, this function is disabled.
