Issue/Introduction

  • We have to update Keystone's bind account for LDAP authentication.
  • Procedure to update the 'default_ldap_password' object.

Environment

7.3

Cause

LDAP password needs updated within VIO

Resolution

  1. List VIOSecret objects (namespace is usually 'openstack')
    osctl get VIOSecret -n openstack

  2. Show full YAML for the specific secret (read-only)
    osctl get VIOSecret viosecret1 -n openstack -o yaml | less

  3. edit VIOSecret
    osctl edit VIOSecret <nameofsecret>

  4. spec:
      nsx_password: ######
      vcenter_password: #####
      vio1: <newPassword> Update password here; plaintext is fine.
