You can change the password to access the Configuration Manager client. Two methods are available to change the password.

You can change the Configuration Manager password when you open the Configuration Manager by clicking Modify in the window where you enter your user ID and password.

Alternatively, to change the Configuration Manager password...

1. Run... cd WC_installdir/bin
   

   ./wcs_encrypt.sh new_password

   Two encrypted versions of the new password will be generated:

   • ASCII encrypted string
   • HEX encrypted string

   The ASCII encrypted string will be required for the next step.

2. Edit...

   WC_installdir/instances/PwdMgr.xml

3. Modify LoginPassword with the ASCII encrypted password
