Change password for SIM account

Dmitry_70 — Tue, 30 Aug 2005 05:44:48 GMT

I have SIM 5.0 installed on the Windows Server 2003 SP1. I need to change my password regulary according to security policy. SIM was installed with my account and it can not work after password change. What should I do to recover SIM operability?

Changing the password of hpsim login account will not affect HPSIM.

But if you make some changes to the the database login password then you need to run the following command to get that updated.

mxpassword -r -x MxDBUserPassword
mxpassword -a -x MxDBUserPassword=

Are you sure thatâ s all? What about WBEM accountsâ passwords in the global protocol settings? Anyway, thank you for your useful reply. But I have one more question. When I experimented with mxpassword yesterday, I accidentally changed MxSshKeyPassword too. I guess that the MxSshKeyPassword was generated automatically during installation and I donâ t know how to revert it back. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
