how to reset the webconsole password

[Aerosmith1]

Hi
I wanted to access the webconsole for VCS-ha. I am able to see the login page at http://<web_gui_ip>:8181 but I do not have the username password set by earlier admin. Is there anyway I can use root login to see the username password in config file or reset it using cluster commands ? also will resetting method affect application service to go down ?

Thanks

Hi,

If you log onto the server as root you should be able to run the following commands

hauser -list

result

admin
root
john

hauser -update root

now enter the new passwd

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Which Node should I perform this command ?

Do I have to run on both nodes or the one presently running Cluster Service node ?

Hope it does not make do any wrong to applications

What could be the reason for this ?

hauser -update admin
VCS:11309:Configuration must be ReadWrite

[RiaanBadenhorst]

run this command

haconf -makerw (this will open the configuration for writing)

do all the changes i described in my previous mail

then do this one

haconf -dump -makero (this will close the configuration. This is very important, dont forget it)

Thank you so much , I could change the password I will check web interface and update the thread,

Thanks again Rian.


I just checked it works, I need to learn if I can freeze cluster using web gui easily or rather commands in shell are better ( I am updating patches on solaris 9 on both nodes)...

Thanks
