Question 43 - D-PDD-DY-23 discussion

To configure a user account for Retention Lock Compliance Edition with specific role and password policies on a PowerProtect DD system, follow these steps:

Step 1: Access the User Management Section

In the DD System Manager interface, go to Administration or Users (exact location may vary).

Look for an option to manage user accounts.

Step 2: Create or Verify the Account

If the account asterix1 already exists:

Select the user and edit the properties.

If the account does not exist:

Click on Add User or Create New User.

Enter the Username as asterix1.

Set the Password as password2.

Step 3: Assign the Compliance Role

Ensure that asterix1 is assigned the correct role, which is usually Security Officer or a similar role necessary for Retention Lock Compliance.

This role allows the user to manage and enforce compliance-related settings on the system.

Step 4: Set Password Expiration Policy

Configure the Password Aging Policy:

Set Password Expiration or Maximum Days to 180 days.

Ensure Minimum Days and Warning Days are set as needed or required by the compliance policy.

Step 5: Save and Verify

Save the changes and verify that the account asterix1 is now listed with the appropriate role and password settings.

This configuration ensures that the asterix1 account is in place with the correct permissions and that the password is set to expire after 180 days. Let me know if you need more assistance!
