Set Up Registry Password

As a System Administrator, you can password-protect the Registry to prevent users from modifying the Registry; that is, restrict users from performing top-level activities such as creating, modifying and deleting Storages. Once you have set password protection, only those users who have a valid Administrator password can modify the Registry.

You can also change the password at regular intervals, for added security.

Access

In order to set the Registry Administrator password:

• In Enterprise Architect, open the Cloud model that is designated as the RAS Registry
• Open the RAS window (Publish > Model Exchange > Reusable Assets)
• The Set Administrator Password button is displayed next to the 'Registry' field

• Click on this button to display the 'Set Administrator Password' dialog

Set the Administrator Password

Notes

• To remove password protection from the Registry, complete the 'Enter old password' field but leave the 'New password' and 'Retype new' fields blank
• If a Storage has a 'Complete Access' password, then you can use either the Administrator password or the 'Complete Access' password to modify the Storage
