Change Power restapi lpar2rrd usrr id using CLI

kng

Is there a way to change the restapi user id lpar2rrd using command line connected to a Power Server managed by HMC?

Pavel

Hi,

do you want to switch from HMC CLI (ssh) to HMC rest api?

Then just go to the HMC properties and select HMC rest api, all will run as with CLI no data lose,  you just get enhanced statsistics about adapters and configuration.

Make sure that you use the latest lpar2rd version 7.30.

I am using HMC restapi currently. My issue is the password expires every 90 days. I want to automate to update the password change on the lpar2rrd server side.

Pavel

Hi,

why do not you disable password expiration for lpar2rrd user in the HMC?

kng

This is a security requirement for all user id

Do you have to change password  for all application accounts every 90 days?

nice one,  it must generate a lot of work accross your company.

We got no automatic solutiopn for that.
