To change the password specified at installation that permits the full access, use the password change tool SETPASS.EXE provided by Power Console Plus.
Execute the password change tool SETPASS.EXE in the subfolder "rserver" in the installation destination of Power Console Plus using Explorer and so on.
Enter the old password in the Old Password field, and the new password in the New Password/Retype Password field, and then click [OK].
If you have forgotten the old password, delete the password file RAIDPASS.VAL, and then set the new password by executing the password change tool SETPASS.EXE.
The password file RAIDPASS.VAL is C:\Winnt\System32\Drivers\etc\raidpass.val. In case of Windows 2003 Server, the HOSTS file is C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\raidpass.val.
IMPORTANT: The password file RAIDPASS.VAL is an important file containing the password that permits the full access through Power Console Plus.
In consideration of security, change the NTFS file access authority for the password file RAIDPASS.VAL to Administrator authority, etc. so that only administrators are permitted to delete/transfer data.
