ALTER ALIAS Command
REMOTEPASSWORD [ \system-name [ remote-password] ]
adds a new remote password, changes the remote password currently defined 
for a particular system, or deletes a remote password. An alias can have zero, 
one, or many remote passwords (one for each remote system to which the 
alias is granted access, as well as one for the local system matching that 
remote system).
Specifying \system-name without a remote-password deletes the remote 
password for the specified system. 
\system-name
specifies the system for which a remote password is to be assigned. For 
\system-name, specify a valid system name.
remote-password
specifies a remote password to be associated with \system-name. For 
remote-password, specify a string from one to eight characters long. 
You can use any alphanumeric characters except blanks, commas, 
semicolons, and the ASCII null character. The case of the letters is 
preserved. Lowercase letters remain lowercase, and uppercase letters 
remain uppercase. You cannot set multiple remote passwords with one 
command.
DEFAULT-PROTECTION [ obj-attr ]
 [ ( obj-attr [ , obj-attr ] ...) ]
changes one or more attributes to be assigned immediately to new disk files 
created by this alias. If you omit obj-attr, new disk files remain under 
Guardian protection. If you specify any obj-attr, the attribute updates the 
current default protection record for the specified alias.
obj-attr
is one of:
OWNER [ owner-id ]
ACCESS [ access-spec [ ; access-spec ] ... ]
AUDIT-ACCESS-PASS [ audit-spec ]
AUDIT-ACCESS-FAIL [ audit-spec ]
AUDIT-MANAGE-PASS [ audit-spec ]
AUDIT-MANAGE-FAIL [ audit-spec ]
For more information about these object attributes as they apply to disk files, 
see Section 8, Disk-File Security Commands.
Caution. Omitting both \system-name and remote-password deletes all the remote 
passwords currently defined for the alias on this system.
