Look for the field â hp.Database.username=â . Change it to the same account that is used to run the â HP Systems Insight Managerâ service.<BR />Then use â mxpassword -gâ or â mxpassword -m -x MxDBUserPassword=â <PASSWORD of="" service="" account="">â â . <BR /><BR />However I was hoping there was a better solution for 6.x. And also looking for the required privs needed</PASSWORD> Wed, 09 Mar 2011 22:20:11 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/need-to-change-sim-service-account-tool/m-p/4763369#M43320 cybercoaster 2011-03-09T22:20:11Z
