You can check if the encrypted password in the config file is the same as the current password of the autosys user in database
$AUTOUSER/config.$AUTOSERV
#+--------- # # Keyword: DBAccess=username/password # # Defines the user name and password (in encrypted format) used by # the scheduler and application server to connect to the database. # The database user name and password is defined during the CA # Workload Automation AE installation. # DBAccess=autosys/2B4A60C0D02773E4E3FF7452033F9D3C
