Maintaining passwords using the CLI

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to view and change the status of the password reset feature for the system.

The superuser password can be reset to its default value of passw0rd by using the initialization tool on the system. To meet varying security requirements, this functionality can be enabled or disabled by using the CLI.

Complete the following steps to view and change the status of the password reset feature:
  1. Issue the setpwdreset CLI command to view and change the status of the password reset feature for the system.
  2. Record the system superuser password because you cannot access the system without it.
