Before you begin
• Security administrators with View & Modify roles can change user
passwords on Device Manager - Storage Navigator.
• If the target user has a local user account for Device Manager - Storage
Navigator, the security administrator can use Device Manager - Storage
Navigator to change the target user's password.
• If the target user has a local user account for the authentication server,
the security administrator can use the authentication server to change the
target user's password. After the password is changed, the target user can
use the new password on both the authentication server and Device
Manager - Storage Navigator.
Procedure
1. In the Device Manager - Storage Navigator Administration tree, select
User Groups.

5. In the Change Password dialog box, specify a new password for the
user in the two password fields.
6. Click Finish.

status check box is checked, the Task window opens to show the status
of the task.
Changing user permissions
You can change user permissions by changing membership in the user group.
A user can belong to multiple user groups.
For example, if you want to change the role of the user who manages
security to the performance management role, add this user to the Storage
Administrator (Performance Management) role group and then remove the
user from the Security Administrator (View & Modify) role group.
Before you begin
• You must have the Security Administrator (View & Modify) role to perform
this task.
• The user whose permissions you want to change must belong to at least
one user group.
• A user account can belong to up to 8 user groups.
• A user group can contain a maximum of 20 user accounts, including the
built-in user accounts.
