Issue/Introduction

How can I change the database password in Virtual Appliance?

Environment

Cause

Some sites have a policy where the database password must be changed every X days.

Resolution

1. Disable all the Task Scheduler tasks on the Remote Tools server.


2. Stop Identity Manager, Identity Governance and Identity Portal.

components.


4. In the Virtual Appliance, click the hamburger (three horizontal lines) menu on the top left corner and click

Setup.



5. Scroll down and click Edit in the External Database box.



6. In the Configure Services Database Credentials screen that appears, change the database password for the

components in the Password field.


For example:


7. Click Test All Connections on the top right of the screen to check the database connections. If the

connections are proper, all the components’ boxes turn green.
