5 Click Yes.
The new storage array name is displayed in the Select storage array table.
6 Repeat step 2 through step 4 to name or rename additional storage arrays.
NOTE: Avoid arbitrary names or names that may lose meaning in the future.
Setting a Password
You can configure each storage array with a password to protect it from
unauthorized access. MDSM prompts for the password when an attempt is
made to change the storage array configuration, such as, when a virtual disk is
created or deleted. View operations do not change the storage array
configuration and do not require a password. You can create a new password
or change an existing password.
NOTE: It is recommended that you use a long password with at least 15
alphanumeric characters to increase security.
To set a new password or change an existing password:
1 Select the relevant storage array and navigate to the AMW for that storage
array. See "Array Management Window" on page 63.
The AMW for the selected storage array is displayed.
2 In the AMW, perform one of these actions:
• Select the storage array in the Logical pane, and then select Storage
Array Set Password.
• Select the Setup tab, and then click Set a Storage Array Password.
• In the AMW, select the Logical tab, right-click and select Set
Password.
The Set Password dialog is displayed.
3 If you are resetting the password, type the Current password.
NOTE: If you are setting the password for the first time, leave the Current
password blank.
4 Type the New password.
5 Re-type the new password in Confirm new password.
NOTE: The password in Confirm new password and New password must be
exactly the same.
