Changing conditions for passwords

You can set password conditions, such as the minimum number of characters and combination of
character types, to prevent users from specifying easy-to-guess passwords. If Replication Manager is
in a cluster environment, you must set password conditions for each management server. For details
on how to do so, see the HP P9000 Replication Manager Software Configuration Guide.

NOTE:

When using an external authentication server to authenticate users, the settings on the external
authentication server are used as the combination of character types that can be used for passwords.
