Changing The Recovery Password - Acer Altos EasyStore User Manual

Chapter 5

Changing the recovery password

121
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 storage
system. You can change this password at any time as long as the Status of the
backup is Normal. (This ensures that the change is also made on the storage
system.)
Note: The same password is used for all disks backed up to the same storage
system. 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 storage system and a different disk to a different
storage system, each disk can have a different recovery password.
To change the recovery password:
1. Click Restore.
2. In the Protected disk list, select a disk whose backup resides on the storage
system whose recovery password you want to change.
To double-check your selection, click Status. The name of the storage system
displays in the Backup location area. Then click Restore to return to the
Restore page.
