Answer

Please use the vserver cifs security modify command to disable/enable required password complexity for a CIFS server in workgroup mode.

If you want required password complexity for local SMB users to be Enabled

vserver cifs security modify -vserver vserver_name -is-password-complexity-required true

If you want the required password complexity for local SMB users to be Disabled

vserver cifs security modify -vserver vserver_name -is-password-complexity-required false
