EMC® VNX® Series Security Configuration Guide for VNX
Login banner and message of the day
A login banner and message of the day (MOTD) provide a way for an administrator to communicate with VNX for file users. The same login banner is seen from the command line interface and Unisphere. The MOTD is seen only from the command line interface. You must be root to modify Control Station properties.
To configure the banner through Unisphere, select System > System Management(task list) > Control Station Properties. You can find a description of this feature in Unisphere online help.
To configure the banner and MOTD using the VNX for file CLI, refer to Using VNX for file CLI for security configuration operations for detailed information.
