Re: HP SIM and changing password of windows account

You should use a service account with static password.

BUT here

After installing HP SIM, I changed the Windows administrator password and can no longer sign in to HP
SIM.
Solution: If you have SQL Server installed locally, verify that it is running. If it is not running, verify the logon
credentials. The service login credentials could have changed. The HP SIM service is registered to run under
the credentials used during installation. To resolve this issue:
1. Change the MSSQL service password:
a. In Windows, open Services (My Computerâ Manageâ Services and Applicationsâ Services).
b. Locate the MSSQL service (SQLserver service for SQL2005) and select Properties.
Sign-in 643
c. Select the Logon tab, and change the password.
d. Restart the MSSQL (or SQLserver) service.
2. Change the HP SIM service password:
a. In Windows, open Services (My Computerâ Manageâ Services and Applicationsâ Services).
b. Locate the HP SIM service, and then select Properties.
c. Select the Logon tab, and change the password.
d. Restart the HP SIM service.
3. If you are using OpenSSH on Windows Server 2000 or 2003, change the OpenSSH Server service
password:
a. In Windows, open Services (My Computerâ Manageâ Services and Applicationsâ Services).
b. Locate the OpenSSH Server service, and then select Properties.
c. Select the Logon tab, and change the password.
d. Restart the OpenSSH and HP SIM service.
