AV Scanner pool : Change password for priviledged user

[not_a_Lone_wolf]

Hi Team,

We have a AV scan setup with a server. The machine account password would be changed by the server team on their end. Hence I would be grateful if somebody could help me in knowing the below points:

1> Would the password be required to change on NetApp side as well?  Command similar to : AVscanner pool modify <priviledged user>  [ This would mean that the AV scan authentication is 2 way on NetApp)

2> Would it be disruptive since mandatory scan option is set to ON?

The "privileged user"  entry will not need a password on the NetApp side. It depends on the username only.

Changing the password of one vscan server, may force it to reconnect. It is always better to disable mandatory scan or schedule maintenance time during this process.
