D) If the account specified is new or not yet enabled, it will not be accessible. Login as root in the UI
and verify the user name is set correctly and enable it.
E) Logout of the UI. Login with new user name and password.
Possible responses:
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 running 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 a 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.
