Defining Password Security

Essbase security is defined at the Essbase Server level. To create passwords, use characters encoded according to the code page specified in the ESSLANG variable on the Essbase Server computer.

In a multibyte character set environment, passwords cannot contain multibyte characters. Consider using the characters in the standard ASCII character set, in the range from 0 through 127, which includes the uppercase and lowercase letters in the standard English alphabet and the numerals 0 through 9. These characters are common to all code pages and to UTF-8.
