Logon Control Page - HP BB118BV - StorageWorks Data Protector Express Package User's Manual & Technical Reference

Expiration
A user account can expire on a given date. When the account expires, Data Protector Express disables
the account and checks the Account is disabled box. This user will be unable to log on until the Account
is disabled box is cleared. You can manually disable an account by checking the Account is disabled
box. To make a disabled account active again, clear the Account is disabled box and change the
Date account expires.
Grace logons
When Grace logons is checked, a user can log on to Data Protector Express a set number of times
after their old password has expired.
For example, if the Grace logons allowed box is checked and Remaining grace logons is set to "2", the user
will be allowed to log on two times after their old password has expired. On the third logon attempt, the user
must change their password. You can also limit the number of grace logons that are permitted.
NOTE:
Grace logons do not function when passwords are not required, that is, when the Require password
check box is cleared.
Connection
These settings control the allowable machines and simultaneous logons for a user. The Concurrent
connections setting controls how many different logons a user may have simultaneously from different
machines.
For example, if Concurrent connections is set to "5", this user can log on to Data Protector Express from
up to five separate machines at the same time.
The user can only log on to Data Protector Express on the machines listed in the User can log on from
these machines field. To add a machine, click Add and select the machine from the Browse dialog box.
To remove a machine, select it and click Delete.
NOTE:
If no machine is listed, a user can log on from any machine.
Password
When Require password is checked, Data Protector Express requires the user to have a password. The
minimum length of the password is determined by the Minimum password length setting.
• If you clear the Require password box and the user has a password, Data Protector Express will
continue to require that user to input their password.
• If you check the Require unique passwords box, Data Protector Express only accepts the new
password if you have never used it.
• If you check the Force periodic password changes box, either the user or the Data Protector
Express administrator must change the password per the Days between forced changes and Date
password expires settings.
• If you check the Allow user to change password box, the user can change their password on
their own.
