Changing the tw_admin password in an ND cluster environment

To change the tw_admin password in an ND cluster environment that you specified when installed IBM BPM, use the WebSphere Application Server administrative console to change the password.

If you do not have BPMAdmin_Auth_Alias defined in your environment, your profiles were most likely created before you upgraded to IBM BPM version 8.0. In this case, follow the process for changing the password in the IBM BPM version 7.5.1 information center.

If users are maintained in federated repositories, then the passwords for the users need to be changed in the repositories. If tw_admin is a user from NDCluster LDAP for example, then the password must be changed in the NDCluster LDAP.


Procedure

  1. Log in to the WebSphere Application Server administrative console.
  2. Navigate to Users and Groups > Manage Users and locate the tw_admin user account.
  3. Change the password for the tw_admin user account.
  4. Change the BPMAdmin_Auth_Alias password.

    1. In the WebSphere Application Server administrative console, click Security > Global security.
    2. Under Authentication, click JAASConfiguration > J2C Authentication data.
    3. Navigate to BPMAdmin_Auth_Alias.
    4. Change the BPMAdmin_Auth_Alias password.
  5. Modify the tw_admin password for the roles associated with the tw_admin administrative user name using one of the following methods:

    • Go to Enterprise Applications > IBM_BPM_Teamworks_< node and server location> > User RunAs roles, for example: Enterprise Applications > IBM_BPM_Teamworks_Node01_Server01 > User RunAs roles. Change the password for the roles with which the tw_admin administrative user name is associated and apply the change.

      For example, if the twem and twuser roles are associated with the tw_admin user name, change the password for those roles.

    • Run the util\Security\bpmModifyMapRunAsRole.py utility to update the password for the administrative user for the system applications. See Defining RunAs roles user assignments for system applications for more information.

      Run the bpmModifyMapRunAsRole.py utility twice in a clustered environment.

      For example,

      wsadmin.bat -port  port number -lang jython -user  username -password  admin -f  C:\WAS_INSTALL_LOCATION\util\Security\bpmModifyMapRunAsRole.py -usr   username -pwd  admin -clusterName  BPM.AppTarget -applicationName  Teamworks
      wsadmin.bat -port  port number -lang jython -user  username -password  admin -f  C:\WAS_INSTALL_LOCATION\util\Security\bpmModifyMapRunAsRole.py -usr   username -pwd  admin -clusterName  BPM.Support -applicationName  PerformanceDW

  6. In a ND environment, you must synchronize the nodes that contain Process Center, Process Server, or Performance Data Warehouse cluster members.

    1. In the administrative console, click System administration > Nodes.

    2. Select all of the nodes and click Full Resynchronize.
    3. Stop and restart all of the clusters and servers.
  7. Restart the cluster members.
