ALTER SAFEGUARD Command
The PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED attribute can be set to ON when
PASSWORD-ENCRYPT is ON.
PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ [ n ]
specifies the minimum number of alphabetical characters required in a user
password when it is set or changed.
The valid values of PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ range from 0 to 8. The
initial value is 0.
The following considerations apply to the PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ
attribute:
The PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ attribute will take effect only when the
PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED attribute is enabled.
When the PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED attribute is changed from OFF
to ON, Safeguard sets the value of the PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-
REQUIRED attribute to 1.
When the PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED attribute is changed from ON
to OFF, Safeguard sets the value of the PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-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.
For more diskfile-pattern information, see the Safeguard User’s Guide.
For examples of how to use these p
arameters, see the Safeguard Administrator’s
Manual.
Note.
The PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED attribute will take effect only when the
PASSWORD-MIN-QUALITY-REQUIRED attribute is set to value greater than
0.
The PASSWORD-ALPHA-REQUIRED attribute is supported only on systems
running J06.11 and later J-series RVUs and H06.22 and later H-series RVUs.
Note. The PASSWORD-MIN-ALPHA-REQ attribute is supported only on systems
