Figure 9-1. Set Access Password Dialog Box
If you are installing a password for the first time, type the
default password, adaptec, in the Old Password field (the
password is case sensitive).
Note:
It is a good idea to change from the default
password as soon as possible, to prevent unauthorized
users from entering the Adaptec CI/O Management
Software program.
3
Type the new password in the New Password field.
Passwords are case sensitive and can be up to 16 characters
long, including the characters A-Z, a-z, and 0-9. Spaces are not
allowed. Long passwords with a mixture of numerals and
letters provide better security. Do not use obvious passwords
like your name, the name of a family member, your birthday,
your social security number, etc.
