NEW PASSWORD MAY NOT BE SUPPLIED WITH PWSUPRES IN EFFECT

Reason:

You entered the PASSWORD command, specifying a new password for the user ID whose passwords you wished to change. Your installation has suppressed password display, either by explicitly specifying PWSUPRES in the SECURITY CONFIG file or by installing the Password Encryption Facility. Since the PASSWORD command you issued will be visible in the CA VM:Director system console log, use of your new password would contradict the decision not to display passwords.

You do not receive this message if you have PASSWORD SPECIFIC authorization. If you have this authorization, you can specify a new password even if your site is using password suppression. The PASSWORD command terminates with an error, and no passwords are changed.

Action:

Enter the PASSWORD command again without specifying a new password. To determine the randomly generated password assigned by CA VM:Director, examine the file PASSWORD CHANGES A0 on your Adisk.
