Changing the maintenance user account password
After setting up the cluster, one of the steps you must do is change the default password of the "maintenance" user account. This is an in-built user account that has administrative access to the operating system root and the appliance command-line interface commands and can be used to perform maintenance activity on the cluster nodes.
To change the maintenance user account password
- Sign in to the NetBackup Flex Scale infrastructure management console.
Open a web browser and type the following URL in the address bar:
https://consoleIP:14161Here, consoleIP is the public IP address that you specified for the infrastructure management UI during the cluster configuration.
Use the following user account to sign in:
User name:
maintenancePassword:
P@ssw0rd
As you are signing in for the first time, you are automatically required to change the default account password.
On the Change Password screen, enter the existing password (mentioned earlier), then set a new password for the user account, and then click Save.
Refer to the Veritas NetBackup Flex Scale Administrator's Guide for more information about NetBackup Flex Scale user management.
