When users forgets their Configuration Console account passwords
or a password needs to be changed for security purposes, system administrators
can reset the password using the password manager command.
Before you begin:
Make sure that you issue the command from the \srd-home\console\ directory.
Procedure:
- In a command window, change directories to the \srd-home\console directory.
- Type the following command, pwdmgr console-passwords.properties
console-principals.properties -r username where username is
the user name of the person whose password you want to reset.
What to do next:
The password of the user name that you specified is now reset to
match the user name. The next time that users log into the Configuration Console
after their password has been reset, the system prompts to reset their password.
So after you have reset a password, you might want to suggest that the user
log in and change the password as soon as possible to minimize any security
concerns or issues.
