ALTER SAFEGUARD Command
When the PASSWORD-NUMERIC-REQUIRED attribute is changed from
ON to OFF, Safeguard sets the value of the PASSWORD-MIN-NUMERIC-
REQ attribute to 0.
The sum of the values of the effective password quality attributes
(PASSWORD-MIN-UPPERCASE-REQ, PASSWORD-MIN-LOWERCASE-
REQ, PASSWORD-MIN-NUMERIC-REQ, PASSWORD-MIN-
SPECIALCHAR-REQ or PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ) must not be
greater than the value of the PASSWORD-MAXIMUM-LEN attribute.
PASSWORD-MIN-SPECIALCHAR-REQ [ n ]
specifies the minimum number of special characters required in a user
password when it is set or changed.
The valid values of PASSWORD-MIN-SPECIALCHAR-REQ range from 0 to 8.
The initial value is 0.
The following considerations apply to the PASSWORD-MIN-SPECIALCHAR-
REQ attribute:
The PASSWORD-MIN-SPECIALCHAR-REQ attribute will take effect only
when the PASSWORD-NUMERIC-REQUIRED attribute is enabled.
When the PASSWORD-SPECIALCHAR-REQUIRED attribute is changed
from OFF to ON, Safeguard sets the value of the PASSWORD-MIN-
NUMERIC-REQ attribute to 1.
When the PASSWORD-SPECIALCHAR-REQUIRED attribute is changed
from ON to OFF, Safeguard sets the value of the PASSWORD-MIN-
SPECIALCHAR-REQ attribute to 0.
The sum of the values of the effective password quality attributes
(PASSWORD-MIN-UPPERCASE-REQ, PASSWORD-MIN-LOWERCASE-
REQ, PASSWORD-MIN-NUMERIC-REQ, PASSWORD-MIN-
SPECIALCHAR-REQ or PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ) must not be
greater than the value of the PASSWORD-MAXIMUM-LEN attribute.
PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED {ON / OFF}
specifies whether the user password will be enforced to have at least one
alphabetical character. The initial value is OFF.
Note. The PASSWORD-MIN-SPECIALCHAR-REQ attribute is supported only on
systems running J06.11 and later J-series RVUs and H06.22 and later H-series
RVUs. .
