iACS Ability to change passwords for multiple systems

Password management in iACS - allow for the changing of one or more system passwords at one time


Use Case:

In iACS - "Systems Configurations" does not give you the ability to change any passwords. This request would be for the following:

- Add a "Change Password" button to the systems configuration window

- Allow selecting 1 or more systems at a time

- Clicking "Change Password" would prompt for current password / new password

- Clicking ok to the prompt would change the pwd's for all systems selected

For a system in the selected list were the password is not the same - simply prompt the user for the password / for that system (when and if an error is encountered).

    As previously mentioned, this request already exists. From the main ACS panel, select Edit-Preferences, then the Passwords tab.

    That already exists.
    Open the main app window, click on Edit... Preferences... click on Passwords tab. Change away!
    Good luck.

    Looks like you already have it ....Under Edit / Preferences / Passwords. Maybe change the requestst a bit to simply add a button on the "Systems Configuration" page, which would make it more obvious to find.
