enable Password Problem With Voltaire Switch Version 4.1

The instructions for configuring Voltaire InfiniBand switch controller cards requires you to change the factory default passwords for the admin and enable accounts, as follows:

An issue exists where you must enter a password with exactly eight characters for the enable account. The admin account is not affected.

If the new password does not contain exactly eight characters, the following message appears when you try to log in with the new password:

Unauthorized mode for this user, wrong password or illegal mode in the first word.

This problem has been reported to Voltaire. As a work around, choose a password that is exactly eight characters.
