Conversion to Trusted OS and password length

I have a HP-UX 11.11 system I want to convert to trusted. A large number of users have a short password (two characters). After the conversion will they be able to use this password or are they immediately forced to change their password?

thanks,
Mario

I found only this for trusted systems:

"A user with an empty password will be forced to set a password upon login on a Trusted System. "

After converting to trusted mode short passwords will be converted, but users will not be forced to change it.

They will be able to use the same password but once it expires they will have to follow the rules when creating a new one. minimum of 6 chars
