Issue/Introduction

This article describes how to change or renew the password of, .rabbitmq-server.service_broker_rabbitmq_admin_credentials, without using the RabbitMQ Management UI.

Environment

Product Version: 2.7

Resolution

1. Follow the procedure in Modify the Installation Files to edit installation.yml and actual-installation.yml in your Ops Manager VM.

2. In both the installation.yml and actual-installation.yml files, search for the keyword "service_broker_rabbitmq_admin_credentials". You should see the section containing the old password. In each file, change the old password to the same new password and save the change.

Below is an example piece of the installation.yml file with the password bolded.

  - guid: rabbitmq-server-0078a10c2c190e5cdd3f
    installation_name: rabbitmq-server
    vm_type_id: medium.disk
    internet_connected: false
    configured_max_in_flight: 1
    properties:
    - deployed: true
      identifier: vm_credentials
      value:
        identity: vcap
        salt: 1ce1bb4b2f060501
        password: S8HPe9pA5L-6JHWGgzVESWCFwioXf3MN
    - deployed: true
      identifier: service_broker_rabbitmq_admin_credentials
      value:
        identity: broker
        salt: a92e33af930e3cfc
        password: mtrjD_0nMH_NPimZwN2YOuhb3Tcd7hVV

3. Once both installation.yml and actual-installation.yml are changed with the same new password, follow the same steps in Modify the Installation Files to selectively Apply Changes to the RabbitMQ tile.
