Hi Jai,

As per standard, I advise to keep all the servers (SAP related) running with Domani\SIDADM user ID & password.

thus, it will be easy for regular maintenance work as it's not advised to keep same password longer then a quarter days.

anyways...as suggested in the previous replies...if you have your domain 'Active Directory' authorization ....you can change the password for your Domain level UserID under specific Organization Unit (OU).

Hi,

If I am not wrong you system is installed in windows. You can change the password in the domian controller under users OU or you can ask your domian administrator to change the same. But, I would recommend not to do this as after chaging the password the sap system will not start and you need to update the changed password in all the places wherever the mentioned IDs are used. For eg. in SAP_<SID> service and SAPOSCOL service.

Also, if the installation is in cluster then need to be more carefull and see where all need to update the changed password.

Thanks & Regards,
