We use the Pasword Generate option so that if you can log onto the box
with the appropriate privs to run dsmc or dsm, you can restore without
supplying a password.  If the restore is from another box, we used an
appropriately prived admin id which eliminates the need to know the node
password.

 Right now we have about 800 clients and to do a restore, the password
is
the same for all clients. How are others doing this. We don't want to
be in
the business of password generation/maintenance to change passwords all
the
time. We also don't want just anybody being able to do a restore on any
box
because the passwords are the same everywhere. We are probably going to
get
hammered by auditors before long about having the same password. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
