Change the SiteMinder Super User Password Using smreg

To change the super user password

1. Be sure that the Policy Server is running and pointed at a configured policy store.
2. Be sure that the smreg utility is located in policy_server_home\bin.
   • policy_server_home

     Specifies the Policy Server installation path.

   Note: If the utility is not present, you can find it in the Policy Server installation media available on the Support site.

3. Run the following command:

   smreg -su password
   

   • password

     Specifies the password for the SiteMinder super user account.

   Note: Be sure that there is a space between -su and the password.

   The utility changes the super user account password.

4. Delete the smreg utility.

   Deleting the utility prevents anyone from changing the super user password.
