The Image Password page sets the passwords to access backup files. Folder backup and volume backup .tib files are all password protected using a unique password for each machine ID. This password remains constant for each machine ID. You may set the password to anything you like. The same password may be set on multiple machines.
Warning: If you decide to keep backup files outside of this system, print out the password for each machine ID or you will not be able to recover the backup later. Kaseya can not recover a backup file for you if you lose this password.
The list of machine IDs you can select depends on the machine ID / group ID filter and the scope you are using. To display on this page, machine IDs must have backup software installed on the managed machine using the Backup > Install/Remove page.
View Password Log

Change
Click Change to change the backup image password of selected machine IDs to the password entered in Create Password and Confirm Password.
Warning: Do not change the password unless you're certain you want to make this change. Changing the password for existing backups forces the scheduling of a new, full, non-synthetic backup. If an offsite server is defined, than the new full non-synthetic backup must be transferred to the offsite server again, even if synthetic backups are enabled. The new password begins to be used the next time a full backup is scheduled.
