Change passwords and synchronize components
Single-click user password change is one of the features, which simplifies the
password maintenance of IDPA. It is recommended that you use this feature for
changing the password as it changes passwords for all the components in IDPA.
WARNING
Changing passwords of individual components is not recommended. Due to any
unforeseen circumstances, if you have to change passwords of individual
components, see the following section.
Changing passwords for individual components
Some changes to component passwords and settings require updating the settings of
other components.
Changing a password for an IDPA component causes the ACM UI to display the
password out of sync error message. To enable the ACM to gather health
information for the component, you must update the stored password (old password)
in the ACM UI with the respective component's updated password. To update an
unsynchronized password, click the error text.
Note
All passwords for the individual components must adhere to the IDPA requirements,
even when they are changed on individual components.
Note
If you modify the password manually on the Avamar server and do not use the change
password option on the IDPA Appliance the system displays an error message when
you try to update the password using the ACM dashboard. For more information about
resolving the Avamar password being out of sync, see the Credential mismatch
section.
Credential mismatch
This section provides information about how to resolve the password mismatch
scenario for the IDPA point products. If you manually modify the password on the
point products and do not use the change password option on IDPA Appliance the
