Overview

Password Protection prevents users who do not have the proper permissions from using Navigator 2 to access any storage arrays on the network.  It is also used to prevent simultaneous access to an array by more than one user at a time.

To add one or more user IDs to the selected array:

  1. In the Array List window, click the name of the array on which you want to set password protection.

  3. In the Explorer tree, select Settings > Password Protection.  The Password Protection window is displayed.

  4. Select one or more user to add in the Password Protection window, and check the box. Click Add User ID.
