Changing the local user password

Contributors

You can change your local user login password to prevent potential security risks.

Before you begin

You must be logged in as a local user.

About this task

The passwords for the maintenance user and for remote users cannot be changed using these steps. To change a remote user password, contact your password administrator. To change the maintenance user password, see the chapter on “Using the maintenance console” in the Active IQ Unified Manager System Configuration Guide.

Steps

  1. Log in to Unified Manager.

  2. From the top menu bar, click the user icon and then click Change Password.

    The Change Password option is not displayed if you are a remote user.

  3. In the Change Password dialog box, enter the current password and the new password.

  4. Click Save.

After you finish

If Unified Manager is configured in a high-availability configuration, you must change the password on the second node of the setup. Both instances must have same password.
