Reset a Password

After five unsuccessful login attempts, a local user is locked out of the StorCycle solution.

IMPORTANT 

Active Directory user login attempts follow Active Directory policies. To protect the Active Directory server, the Spectra StorCycle solution adds a 1 second delay on the next login attempt for every invalid login attempt.

Use the following instructions to reset the password.

1. Sign on to the StorCycle server as a local Administrator.
2. Open a Command Prompt window.
3. Change directory to the StorCycle program directory. The default is: C:\Program Files\Spectra Logic Corporation\Spectra StorCycle.
4. Execute ssc.exe user reset <username> <password>, where the username is for the user requiring a password reset, and password is the new password.
1. Log in to the StorCycle server as a user with sudo privileges.
2. Open a terminal window.
3. Execute sudo /usr/sbin/ssc user reset <username> <password> where the username is for the user requiring a password reset, and password is the new password.
