OneView 4.0 - modify password for _HPOneViewMonitor?

Question on HPE OneView 4.0.  The service account that is pushed to all the iLOs (_HPOneViewMonitor):  can that password be changed or maintained by the Admins in OV?  Or is it secure & scrambled by OV?  How secure or easy to crack is it?

The _HPOneViewMonitor and _HPOneViewAdmin accounts that are deployed (Monitored versus Managed), the password is managed by the HPE OneView appliance.  It is randomly generated upon first appliance bringup.  The length is the longest supported by iLO, which is 39.  Users have no access to it, and cannot change it.
