MSA 2052 Login/User password

[ThorstenWurm]

Hi,

I am trying to configure a MSA 2052, but I didn´t have the user and password.
How is it possible, to reset this information?

The storage has been baught by an auction, so iit is not possible to find out this data.

Best regards,

Thorsten

Hi

Try this

1. Connect to the MSA CLI interface over the USB serial port using putty, minicom or your preferred serial terminal emulator (see HPE documentation).
2. Hit enter to display to the MSA welcome banner and login prompt
3. Proceed to login with username restoredefaults and the serial number of the MSA module as the password
4. The controller will reboot to factory settings, albeit retaining the network (IP) configuration
5. Once the controller has rebooted, you can login with HPE default username manage and password !manage          try it I hope it works      https://justanothersysadmin.com/2021/reset-hpe-msa-2052-password/                                                Regards                                                                                                                                                                               Give a KUDO if this helps

@ThorstenWurm Here's a previous forum response to password recovery:  https://community.hpe.com/t5/MSA-Storage/FORGOT-PASSWORD-FOR-HPE-MSA-2050/td-p/7058562#.YvvEqXbMKUk

You need the USB cable and direct access
