Question
What is the procedure to reset the password for the primary administrative user in Tivoli Integrated Portal (usually "tipadmin") if the current password is not known?
Answer
If the password for the primary administrative user is not known and must be reset, do the following:
- As the OS user that was used to install TIP, open a command prompt and execute the following wsadmin command:
<TIP HOME>/bin/wsadmin -conntype none -profileName TIPProfile
Replace "<TIP HOME>" with the actual installation path for TIP.
- At the wsadmin prompt, enter the following command:
wsadmin> $AdminTask changeFileRegistryAccountPassword {-userId <USER_ID> -password <NEW_PASSWORD>}
Replace "<NEW_PASSWORD>" with the desired new password.
Example:
wsadmin>$AdminTask changeFileRegistryAccountPassword {-userId tipadmin -password tivadmin}
- Save the wsadmin change, and then exit.
wsadmin>$AdminConfig save
wsadmin> exit
- Restart TIP, and then try logging in using the new tipadmin password.
