HP 3PAR OS 3.1.3 Command Line Interface Reference

The following example displays the prompts encountered when changing a user’s (user1) password:
cli% setpassword –u user1
password:
Old password:
NOTES
• The format of the entry in the file is <username> <encrypted_password>. This file may
be referenced by the TPDPWFILE environment variable or -pwf command line option for
subsequent commands.
• The -save or -saveonly option requires the -file option.
• Without any options, the command will prompt to change the invoking user's password on
the system.
• Changing a user's password has no effect on SSH access if the user has set a valid key with
the setsshkey command. Until the SSH key is removed the user will not have to provide the
new password.
• For additional information about password files, see the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage Concepts
Guide and the HP 3PAR Command Line Interface Administrator’s Manual.
