Changing Password Settings for DCS Redis Instances

Scenario

DCS Redis instances can be accessed with or without passwords. After an instance is created, you can change its password setting in the following scenarios:

• To access a DCS Redis instance in password-free mode, you can enable password-free access to clear the existing password of the instance.
