registers user passwords in LSF on Windows
SYNOPSIS
lspasswd [-u user_name]
DESCRIPTION
Registers user passwords in LSF on Windows. Passwords must be 3 characters or longer.
By default, if no options are specified, the password applies to the user who issued the
command.
Only the LSF administrator can enter passwords for other users.
Users must update the password maintained by LSF if they change their Windows user
account password.
Passwords are Windows user account passwords and are saved in the LSF database. LSF
uses the passwords to start jobs on behalf of the user.
lspasswd communicates with LSF services on the local machine to store the
password. The password is stored in encrypted format and the password database is
protected by Windows file access permissions.
