Thank you if you answer.

Excuse me, I have already found an answer. We can use command

rlm setup

After that we can login to set up address with naroot and the empty password.

Hi Alexander,

Data ONTAP root and RLM naroot user share the same password.

An easy way to replace them is just use the "passwd" command.

Cheers,

I believe the only way to change it, reboot the filer, get in maintenance mode, you will presented with a list, one of them is reset root password. You should be connected to the serial port.
