3 User account management
This chapter describes the settings required for managing user accounts of P9000 Command View
AE Suite products.
Password conditions for user accounts
To prevent user passwords from being guessed by a third party, P9000 Command View AE Suite
products allow you to specify password conditions. For example, you can specify a minimum number
of characters and a required combination of character types.
The password conditions are set in the security.conf file, which is stored in the following locations:
• In Windows:
installation-folder-for-Common-Component\conf\sec\security.conf
• In Linux:
installation-directory-for-Common-Component/conf/sec/security.conf
The following table describes the password conditions set in the security.conf file:
