Hi mrmhar1408,

This is expected behavior. Please refer to the following note as mentioned in the DRS admin guide:

Be  aware that your backup .tar files are encrypted by a randomly generated  password. This password is then encrypted by using the cluster security  password and gets saved along with the backup .tar files. You must  remember this security password or take a backup immediately after the  security password change/reset.
