ChangePassword Script (Scheduler Index)¶

The script change_password updates the password of the local-based authentication of Scheduler Index. This script is located in the directory <DENODO_HOME>/tools/arn-index.

Syntax of the “change_password” script (Scheduler Index)¶

change_password -h <host> -p <port> -l <login> -P <password> -n <new password>

-h <host>: host name or IP address of Scheduler Index.

-p <port>: port of Scheduler Index.

-l <login>: login name to connect.

-P <password>: password of this user account.

-n <new password>: the new password of local account.

You can encrypt both passwords with the command <DENODO_HOME>/tools/arn-index/encrypt_password "<password>". Then, copy the output of this command and pass it as an argument of this parameter, with the prefix encrypt_password. For example, -P encrypted:Gr16MjvuXhRzPtPH/yTXHw==.

The line below is an example of running the export command:

Example¶

./change_password.sh -h localhost -p 8000 -l admin -P "admin" -n "encrypted:AGPPk7O+Q1JdNXAZv6Ea2vaMJblVZVwtYqNnd9ujfk0="

This command updates the password of the local-based authentication to new_admin_password (in this example, we pass this new password encrypted).
