registers user passwords in LSF on Windows

Synopsis

lspasswd [-uuser_name] [-ppassword]

lspasswd [-r][-u user_name]

lspasswd [-c][-u user_name] [-p password]

lspassword [-h -V]

Description

Registers user passwords in LSF on Windows. Passwords must be longer than 3 characters and 31 characters or less.

By default, if no options are specified, the password applies to the user who issued the command.

Users must update the password maintained by LSF if they change their Windows user account password.

Passwords are Windows user account passwords and are saved in the LSF database. LSF uses the passwords to start jobs on behalf of the user.

lspasswd communicates with LSF services to store the password. The password is stored in encrypted format and the password database is protected by file access permissions. The password remains encrypted as it travels through the network.

The -poption allows scripts to use lspasswd. You should not use this option directly on the command line because the password is entered in full view on the command line. Only error messages are displayed when using the -poption.

Options

-c-uuser_name -ppassword

Check that the password is valid for the specified user.

-r-uuser_name

Remove the user entry from the password database.

-uuser_name -ppassword

Specify the user and password for the user whose password you want to register or change. Include the domain name in uppercase letters (DOMAIN_NAME\ user_name).

-hPrints command usage to stderr and exits.

-VPrints LSF release version to stderr and exits.

Limitations

You must run lspasswd from an LSF Windows host.
