  • 1.  Default Password for resource

    Posted Aug 29, 2017 10:27 AM

    Hi, I want to know the default password for the resource that is set up in Clarity 15.2 and that I tried with the password 'niku2000' and this doesn't seems to be working. Any idea or suggestions on this would be of great help!

     

    Thanks in advance.

    The niku2000 password is set by default when you create a resource via XOG.

    This can be changed as per thread below.

    Otherwise, if you are trying to access to CA PPM, but do not have the password, you might want the administrator to reset it for you.

    If you are using LDAP as authentication method, it might play in here too.

    Thank you for the response. I'm looking for a way to reset password for 200+ users who are already existing in Clarity. Is that advisable to write an update GEL script and change the password for existing users? Would that be right way to get this sorted?

    Hi Monica,

     

    There is an old community post related to this password reset, please go through it for some more insights on this process.

    Ref: Reset Passwords of all users 

     

    Also, refer the mentioned knowledge document which talks about updating a password (On Premise customers) for selected user.

    Just wondering again...

    Do I recall it correctly that XOGing the minimum data for a user resets the password to niku2000?

    Yes Martti that appears to be the case (at least the warning says so!)

    That would solve the situation where you need to reset the passwords en masse, but in a case where you just need to change something else en masse that is a real pain.
