Set the SOA Security Manager Super User Password

The Policy Server installer installs the FSS Administrative UI and SOA Security Manager utilities with a default Super User account named SOA Security Manager. You set the SOA Security Manager Super User password to let an administrator:

• log into the FSS Administrative UI using the default SOA Security Manager account
• use SOA Security Manager utilities using the default account

Note: You use the smreg utility to change the SOA Security Manager Super User. The smreg utility is located at the top level of the Policy Server installation kit on the Technical Support site.

To locate installation kits on the Support site

1. Click Technical Support.
2. Log into CA Support Online.
3. Click Download Center.
4. Search the Download Center for the installation kit you need.

To set the SOA Security Manager Super User password

1. Copy smreg to policy_server_home\bin.
   • policy_server_home

     Specifies the Policy Server installation path.

2. Run the following command:

   smreg -su siteminder_super_user_password
   

   • siteminder_super_user_password

     Specifies the SOA Security Manager Super User password.

   Limit: The password can be from 6 to 24 characters in length.

   Note: The password is case-insensitive, except in cases where the password is stored in an Oracle policy store.

3. Delete smreg from policy_server_home\bin.

   Note: Deleting smreg prevents anyone from changing the password without knowing the previous one.

   The password for the default SOA Security Manager Super User account is set.
