Change the Java CS Administration Stored Password

To ensure better security across a deployment you can change the Java CS administration users stored password.

To change the Java CS administration users stored password

1. Start Java CS.
2. Bind to Java CS using the following details:

   Host

   Specifies the host computer name of the Java CS

   Protocol

   LDAP v3

   Port

   2041, when using level: SSL + User + Password (TLS)

   20410, when using the less safe level: User + Password

   User DN

   uid=admin,ou=system

   Password

   As configured during installation.

3. Change the password for “uid=admin,ou=system” to a new value.

   This change takes effect immediately.

   Note: The Java CS remembers all passwords for the administrator user because the last restart and all passwords are accepted as valid for bind requests. This allows phased upgrade of passwords for a Java CS where multiple Provisioning Servers connect to the Java CS, but do not update their stored passwords for the Java CS at the same time.
