Setting Up Security

The GUI RAID Manager provides password protection to
prevent unauthorized modification of the system configuration.
This protection, which is implemented on the GUI RAID
Manager station, prompts a user for the station password the first
time he or she attempts to modify the disk array settings after
turning on the GUI RAID Manager station or after the station
comes back from a period of inactivity. Specifying the correct
password gives the user full control over the disk array system;
specifying otherwise, only allows the user to view the current
configuration of the system.
By default, the GUI RAID Manager station comes without any
password, thus when prompted for the password for the first
time, just press ENTER. After gaining control, set a password to
provide security to the managed disk array system. The set
password will be saved into the memory of the GUI RAID
Manager station.
You can also set an inactivity time, which will determine when
to reactivate the password security feature after a period of
station inactivity. If, within the specified period, there is no
activity from the keyboard or mouse, this security feature will be
put back into effect
the first time there is an attempt to modify the disk array
configuration. This feature is particularly useful in protecting
unattended GUI RAID Manager stations.
