Data Center Network Manager Password Question

[klaughman33]

Hello,

While recently implementing the new vapp for DCNM 7.2.1, it tries to align the fabric/switch passwords with that of the DCNM password, which is not what the customer would like to do. Is there any way to disable this password check prompt when launching the DCNM-SAN interface? I don't want someone to accidently click "yes" but after looking everywhere I seem to be unable to figure out how to disable it:

Thanks for any insight and help!

Hello,

Here is how to disable this check:

Open up the DCNm Web Client.

Click on the Admin Tab and select Server Properties.

Change "client.validateOpenFabricPassword" to false.

Restart DCNM.

Best regards,

Jim
