Modifying the default password policy

OnCommand Workflow Automation (WFA) is configured to enforce a password policy for local users. You can modify the default password policy.

Before you begin

You must have logged in to the WFA host system as a root user.

The default WFA installation path is used in this procedure.
If you changed the default location during installation, you must use the changed WFA installation path.
The command for the default password policy is ./wfa --password-policy=default.
The default is "minLength=true,6;specialChar=true,1;digitalChar=true,1;lowercaseChar=true,1;uppercaseChar=true,1;whitespaceChar=false" . This indicates that the default password policy must have a minimum length of 6 characters, must contain at least 1 special character, 1 digit, 1 lowercase character, 1 uppercase character, and no spaces.

At the shell prompt, navigate to the following directory on the WFA server: WFA_install_location/wfa/bin/
Modify the default password policy by entering the following command: ./wfa --password-policy=PasswordPolicyString --restart=WFA
