Protecting Local Disks
7.7. Changing the Recovery Password
When you protect a disk, you specify what password
to use for recovering the disk using the recovery CD or
when you remotely boot from a backup on the Ethernet
Disk RAID. You can change this password at any time
as long as the Status of the backup is Normal. (This en-
sures that the change is also made on the Ethernet Disk
RAID.)
TeChNICAl NOTe:
The same password is
used for all disks backed up to the same Ether-
net Disk RAID. If you backed up multiple disks
to the same location and change the password
for one, the password is changed for all of them.
However, if you backed up one disk to one Ether-
net Disk RAID and a different disk to a different
Ethernet Disk RAID, each disk can have a differ-
ent recovery password.
To change the recovery password:
Click
Restore
.
In the
Protected disk
list, select a disk whose backup
resides on the Ethernet Disk RAID whose recov-
ery password you want to change. See Fig. 7.7.A.
To double-check your selection, click
Status
. The
name of the Ethernet Disk RAID appears in the
Backup location
area. Then click
Restore
to return
to the Restore page.
