Changing database passwords

You can change the database password, as needed, once your database configuration is completed.

About this task

After you have finished configuring your database, you can change the database password using the administrative console.

To change the database password, perform the following tasks:

  • Stop the clusters or servers
  • Update the authentication alias for all data sources
  • Update the Messaging Engine data store authentication alias
  • Start the clusters or servers
Important: Before you make any configuration changes, it is suggested that you back up the config folder. The config folder is located beneath the Deployment Manager at <Dmgr-profile>/config. Contact your WebSphere® Application Server administrator for more information.
