DSM Explorer Can Change the Password Values in OS image Defaults

Symptom:

When I install OS images the default password is used which is not desired.

Solution:

In DSM Explorer, you can change the Password Values in OS image Defaults

If a domain password has been changed, it is possible to use the new password for all new OS installations.

All OS parameter values of the pwd (password) can be changed in the default parameter values in the DSM Explorer, even if the OS Image is assigned to computers.

If the default password is changed in an already assigned OS image, the new password will be used immediately in all affected configurations except the configurations where the default password is overwritten with a computer specific password.

Note: If the new default password was changed after a configuration became pending, the new password will not be downloaded to the boot server in order to become the new password for the pending OS installation.
