.SH "TARGETS"
.sp
\-dimm (DimmIDs)
.RS 4
Changes the passphrase on specific DCPMMs by supplying one or more
comma separated DCPMM identifiers. However, this is not recommended as
it may put the system in an undesirable state. The default is to change the
passphrase on all manageable DCPMMs.
.RE
.SH "PROPERTIES"
.sp
Passphrase
.RS 4
The current passphrase (1\-32 characters). For better passphrase protection, specify an
empty string (e.g., Passphrase="") to be prompted for the current passphrase or to use
a file containing the passphrases with the source option.
.RE
.sp
NewPassphrase
.RS 4
The new passphrase (1\-32 characters). For better passphrase protection,
specify an empty string (e.g., NewPassphrase="") to be prompted for the
passphrase or to use a file containing the passphrase with the source option.
.RE
.sp
ConfirmPassphrase
.RS 4
Confirmation of the new passphrase (1\-32 character and must match
NewPassphrase). For better passphrase protection, specify an empty string
(e.g., ConfirmPassphrase="") to be prompted for the passphrase or to use a
file containing the passphrase with the source option.
.RE
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.sp
Changes the passphrase from mypassphrase to mynewpassphrase on all DCPMMs.
.sp
.nf
ipmctl set \-dimm Passphrase=mypassphrase NewPassphrase=mynewpassphrase
 ConfirmPassphrase=mynewpassphrase
.fi
.br
.sp
Changes the passphrase on all DCPMMs by having the CLI prompt for the
current and new passphrases.
.sp
.nf
ipmctl set \-dimm Passphrase="" NewPassphrase="" ConfirmPassphrase=""
.fi
.br
.sp
Changes the passphrase on all DCPMMs by supplying the current and new
passphrases from the specified file. In this example, the format of the file
would be:
.sp
#ascii
.br
Passphrase=myOldPassphrase
.br
NewPassphrase=myNewPassphrase
.sp
.nf
ipmctl set \-source passphrase.file \-dimm Passphrase="" NewPassphrase=""
ConfirmPassphrase=""
.fi
.br
.SH "LIMITATIONS"
.sp
The specified DCPMM must be manageable by the host software, have
security enabled and not be in the "Unlocked, Frozen", "Disabled, Frozen",
or "Exceeded" lock states.
.sp
Command is subject to OS Vendor (OSV) support. If OSV does not provide support,
command will return "Not Supported."
.SH "RETURN DATA"
.sp
If empty strings are provided for the passphrase properties and the source
option is not included, the user will be prompted (once for all DCPMM) to enter
the current passphrase, then again for the new passphrase and then again to
confirm the new passphrase as described below. The passphrase characters are
hidden.
.sp
Current passphrase: ****
.sp
For each DIMM, the CLI will indicate the status of the passphrase change
operation. If a failure occurs when updating the passphrase on multiple DCPMMs,
the process will exit and not continue updating the remaining DCPMMs.
.SH "SAMPLE OUTPUT"
