If the server uses password authentication, clients must use passwords. Passwords are then also required for the server to process scheduled operations for client nodes. If the password expires and is not updated, scheduled operations fail. You can prevent failed operations by allowing Tivoli Storage Manager to generate a new password when the current password expires. Include the PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE option in the Tivoli Storage Manager client options file to ensure that the client always gets a new password when the old one expires.
The PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE option is also required in other situations, such as when you want to use the Web backup-archive client to access a client node. See the client user's guide for more information.
