My three node vertica cluster is down and won't start up
Release : 3.7
expired password for dradmin
Reviewing /opt/vertica/log/adminTools.log we noted the dradmin password had expired. As a result we reset the dradmin password on all 3 nodes with the following command: # passwd username
After resetting the password we ran the following command as the dradmin user, from /opt/vertica/bin: ./admintools -t start_db -d <DB name> -F
After doing that the database started up
