Setting a Password Expiration Duration

To specify the duration after which passwords expire, follow these steps:

  1. SSH into your HMG or HSG, and elevate to root.

  2. Create the file: /opt/haivision/madra/data/password_settings.json

  3. Add the following content to the file, where the integer value represents the number of days after which passwords expire. The value must be between 1 and 90.

    {
	"lifespan":2
}

Note

When the password of the operator or user account expires, the password must be changed by the haiadmin account.

To remove the password expiration, delete the /opt/haivision/madra/data/password_settings.json file.
