Description

When you try to change the value of vm.password.length parameters, if the value is < 10 the error message says:
"Please enter a value greater than 6 for the configuration parameter"

In the code server/src/com/cloud/configuration/ConfigurationManagerImpl.java the validation use 10 as length and the message says 6 for length:

if ("vm.password.length".equalsIgnoreCase(name) && val < 10) {
throw new InvalidParameterValueException("Please enter a value greater than 6 for the configuration parameter:" + name);
