IMPORTANT: Do not use the Oracle tools to change the passwords.

•SYS - Used for the management server database creation. Default password: change_on_install

•SYSTEM - Used for management server database creation, in addition to database import, export and re-initialization. Default password: manager

•RMAN_USER - Used for RMAN backup and restore. This user has sys privilege. Default password: backup

•DB_SYSTEM_USER - Used for all the database activity, including establishing a connection to the management server database. Default password: password

•SIM_MANAGER - Used for all HP SIM activity, including the HP SIM schema, maintenance, and login. Default password: quake

You must change the passwords of the SYS, SYSTEM, RMAN_USER, SIM_MANAGER, and

DB_SYSTEM_USER accounts by using the Database Admin Utility, so the management server is aware of the changes. Do not change the password for one of these accounts by using Oracle. Make sure you keep the new passwords in a safe location, as it is your responsibility to remember the Oracle passwords.

IMPORTANT: If HP SIM and Storage Essential are using the same Oracle database, you must not only use the Database Admin Utility to change the password, but you must also use the mxpassword command to change the password as described in the following steps.

You must provide the same SIM_MANAGER password for the mxpassword command and the Database Admin Utility.

The management server requires the password to have the following characteristics:

•a minimum of three characters

•starts with a letter

•contains only letters, numbers and underscores (_)

•does not start or end with an underscore (_)

To change the password of a system account:

1.If you are changing the SIM_MANAGER password and HP SIM and HP SE are using the same Oracle database, you must complete the following steps.:

a.Log onto the server running HP Systems Insight Manager.

b.Stop the AppStorManager service if it is started.

c.Enter the following at the command prompt:

C:\> mxpassword -m -x MxDBUserPassword=mynewPass

where mynewPass is your new password for the database.
