Change the user name and password for the database Schema user - UNIX

The Schema user owns and can create the database tables for the Managing Server. To change the user name and password for the Schema user:

1. Create a local UNIX or Linux account associated with the new user, new_user_name.

   To change the password for the installation user without changing the user name, change the password of the user on the local operating system.

2. Encrypt the new password for the database Schema user by completing the following steps:

   1. From a command line, change to the MS_home/bin directory.

   2. Enter the following command:

      ./amcrypto.sh -encrypt new_user_pwd

      Running the script produces an output that is the encrypted version of the new_user_pwd.

   3. Copy this output and use it as the value you enter for the JDBC_PASSWORD parameter of the setenv.sh file, in the next step.

3. Modify the MS_home/bin/setenv.sh and edit the following parameters:

   JDBC_USER=new_user_name

   JDBC_PASSWORD=new_user_pwd

4. Change ownership of the MS_home directory using the following command, if you want to start your processes as the new user.

   chown -R new_user_name:new_group_name MS_home

5. Log into the IBM WAS administrative console where the ITCAM for Application Diagnostics Managing Server is installed and expand...
   Resources | JDBC Providers | jdbc_provider | Data Sources | data_source | J2C Authentication Data Entries | j2c_authentication_data_entry

6. In the User ID field, type in the new user.

7. In the password field, type in the password corresponding to the new user.

8. ClickOK.

9. Save the changes.

10. Restart the instance of IBM WAS used by the Managing Server.
