Use CA EEM to Change Your CA Process Automation Password

The administrator typically assigns a temporary password when setting up user accounts for the internal user store. All CA Process Automation users with user accounts created in CA EEM can change this password before you log in to CA Process Automation. Then, you can change your CA Process Automation password at the interval that password policies define.

Note: This ability does not apply when CA EEM references user accounts from an external user store such as Microsoft Active Directory. In this case, maintain your password within the referenced directory.

Use CA EEM to change your CA Process Automation password.

Follow these steps:

1. Open a browser and enter the URL for the CA EEM server that CA Process Automation uses. For example:

   https://hostname_or_IPaddress:5250/spin/eiam/
   

   To identify the host name or IP address of the CA EEM that CA Process Automation uses, see the CA EEM Backend Server field on the CA Process Automation Configuration tab Security subtab.

2. Log in to CA Embedded Entitlements Manager (CA EEM) from the log In dialog:
   1. For Application, select <Global>.
   2. Delete EiamAdmin if this default name appears in the User Name field.
   3. Enter your CA Process Automation user name and password.
   4. Click Log In.
3. Under Self Administration, click Change Password.
4. Reset your password:
   1. Enter your CA Process Automation user name and old password.
   2. Enter your new password in both the New password and Confirm password fields.
   3. Click OK.

   CA Process Automation accepts your updated credentials when you log in.
