1. A fault is returned which suggests a possible error in the request payload.

2. An empty response which suggests an error occurred while processing the request.

3. An instance of the class is returned where the property value is unchanged.

4. An instance of the class is returned where the property value is modified. The set is successful.

5. The property value may be blank as intended by the implementation for security. To determine

success, try logging in with the new password. Ensure the account is enabled.

5.5.2 Modify Password (using DMTF Model)

When the account setting capability allows, the user password of an account may be modified by

issuing a set operation on the UserPassword property of the CIM_Account class instance. The set

operation requires an instance reference. The instance reference may be retrieved by adding

EnumerateEPR mode to enumerate or get of the class.

NOTE: The profile defines this property as string array of type octet string. In this implementation, the

password is a string of type clear text. The security concern is resolved by transmission of this

information only through secure HTTPS communication.

See Section 5.5.1 for an implementation example.

5.5.3 Modify Account State (using DMTF Model)

When the account setting capability allows, the user account may be enabled or disabled by invoking

the RequestStateChange() method of the CIM_Account class instance. The invoke operation requires

an instance reference. The instance reference may be retrieved by adding EnumerateEPR mode to

enumerate or get of the class.

Replace “DCIM User 16” with the applicable user name and “2” with the desired request state.

Invoke RequestStateChange() with the following parameters and syntax:

wsman invoke -a RequestStateChange "http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-
