(A)
This applies to WEB Agents Installed on Proliant Servers / Compaq PCS

Solution:
The default web agent logins are
Account User Name Password
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~
Anonymous anonymous
User user public
Operator operator operator
Administrator administrator administrator

To reset the password information:
- Stop the CIM agents completely on the server
- Delete the file C:\COMPAQ\WBEM\CPQHMMD.ACL and the folder C:\COMPAQ\WBEM\cache from the server
- Restart the agents to recreate the file (or reboot)

Note: This will not fix the issue with 5.3 Agents and higher. These versions require the Foundation Agent to be reinstalled, then use the Package Configuration Tool under the tools menu (Remote Deployment Utility) and set the password to the one desired.

note: In order to fix the issue using smartstart 6.xx you must deinstall the management agents, then remove the C:\COMPAQ\WBEM\CPQHMMD.ACL and the folder C:\COMPAQ\WBEM\cache from the server and then use the autorun of the smartstart cd and choose accept on the disclaimer, and then on install software, and then there comes a popup screen to configure the webmanagement password

For REsetting the password for CIM
From the CIM 7 installation directory, typically, "C:\program files\compaq\Compaq Insight Manager 7", go into the "config" subdirectory and edit the file named, "database.props".
Below are typical contents of "config\database.props":
#Thu Apr 18 09:13:51 CDT 2002
compaq.Database.install.success=true
compaq.Database.install.databaseSize=100
compaq.Database.install.databaseName=insight_db_v31
compaq.Database.username=sa
compaq.Database.driver=sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
compaq.Database.install.path=.\\
compaq.Database.ep=3xR32cGf
compaq.Database.install.databaseLogSize=100
compaq.Database.Databasename=jdbc\:odbc\:insight_db_v31
Assuming that the SA password was not blank, there will be a â compaq.Database.epâ line with an encrypted form of the password after the equal sign.
If the SA password was blank, there will already be a â compaq.Database.password=â in the file. When CIM 7 starts, if there is a .password line with a non-blank password, it will create the .ep line with an encrypted password and remove the .password line. This is to help keep the SA password secure.
To resolve this problem, remove the â compaq.Database.epâ line if it exists, and create a â compaq.Database.password=â line, with the password immediately following the equal sign.
Now, restart CIM 7 and it will encrypt the newly inserted password in database.props, and begin using it.
NOTE: The name on the left side of the equal sign is case-sensitive. The â câ in Compaq must be lowercase, the â Dâ in Database must be uppercase, and the â
