Using the same keystrokes in other screens, enter the password you want to use for the 'admin' user of
both BRU Server and direct access to the bruAPP. For security purposes, when you type the password
into the Administrator password screen (figure 7.11), nothing will appear as you type, continue to enter
your password and press [ENTER].

Administrator password screen.
The next screen will appear just like the original Administrator password screen, this is a confirmation
screen to ensure that you typed the password correctly the first time. If the first and second password
entered do not match the process will need to be started over to enure that the password that gets set
is intentional.
Password Security:
The bruAPP will accept both simple and complex passwords of
any length. It is up to you to create a password that adheres to your organization's
security policies. It is recommended to keep the password between eight (8) and 16
characters in length.
Performing the Initial Hardware Scan
Now that your bruAPP has been configured, the BRU Server software must now perform a hardware
scan to detect any tape devices connected to the bruAPP for D2T or D2D2T operations. See figure
7.12.
