Issue

  • ONTAP allows password lengths up to 127 characters, but configuring the required minimal password length is currently supported values are 3 to 64 characters.
    cluster1::> security login role config modify -vserver cluster1 -role admin -passwd-minlength 127
    Error: "127" is an invalid value for field "-passwd-minlength <3..64>"

  • This request for enhancement represents some customers' request to engineering to not limit the minimal password length to 64 characters.
