change password on Insight Manager Agents

[Horst Hinz]

We have recently combined 7 different Health Services into one Central Health Authority which means we've combined 7 different domains into one. I'm implementing Insight Manager on all the Compaq gear we have across all our agencies. A number of these servers have older Insight Management agents with unknown passwords. I have domain rights on the server so I can log into the server locally, how can I change the password on the Insight Manager agents without knowing the original password. I know I can completely uninstall the agents and install the new agents and choose my password, HOWEVER, I can't afford to reboot some of these servers at this time.

Copy CPQHMMD.ACL from a server with a known password to the other servers. Agents will need to be restarted to read in the change but a reboot won't be necessary.

Thanks for the info, this is exactly what I needed to do.
