Your first security step should be to change the Data Protector Express administrator's password. Refer to
Changing your password on page 10 for instructions on changing your password.
Your Data Protector Express administrator may have set up your password to expire after a set period of
time. For example, your password may expire after 60 days. This forces you to change your password
regularly.
If your password has expired, Data Protector Express will prompt you to change your password. If you
choose not to change your password, Data Protector Express may still let you log on, even with an
expired password. Logging on with an expired password is called a grace logon. Your Data Protector
Express administrator will determine how many grace logons you are allowed.
When your password has expired and you have used all of your grace logons, Data Protector Express will
ask you to change your password when you log on.
When your Data Protector Express administrator set up Data Protector Express to run on your network,
your PC desktop was assigned to a Data Protector Express management domain. Your PC desktop, along
with its drives and peripherals, can only be a member of one Data Protector Express management
domain. The name of this storage domain is the default name that appears in the Domain list on the
Logon window.
Normally, you should leave the default name in the list unchanged. This is because you will typically
want to work with the Data Protector Express management domain to which your PC desktop belongs.
Occasionally, however, you may wish to work in a different storage domain. You might be asked by a co-
worker or your Data Protector Express administrator, for example, to run a Data Protector Express job in
a different Data Protector Express management domain.
To select a different Data Protector Express management domain
1. Use the drop-down menu to choose a Data Protector Express management domain from the Domain
name list. (A list of possible Data Protector Express management domains will appear.)
2. Select the Data Protector Express management domain you wish to use and click OK.
Although you can log on to different Data Protector Express management domains, you can only
create and run jobs within a single Data Protector Express management domain. Further, you can only
access files and devices in a single Data Protector Express management domain. This means, for example,
