Resetting the admin password by using the command line

The recommended method for changing the local admin account password is by using the user interface (UI). However, since this method requires you to log in to the UI with the admin account, you might have to reset the admin account password by using the IMM2 command line interface (CLI).

Procedure

  1. Log in to the IMM browser and open a remote control session.
  2. Log in to the Red Hat® operating system as the root user.

    The default password is napatech10.

  3. In 7.4.0, type this command to remove the accounts file: 
    rm /opt/pandion/conf/accounts.json

Results

The admin user password is reset to the default password, which is pandion.
