Hi Suman,

The SDM password is stored as an irreversible hash in the SDM repository. Therefore, editing the hashed value of the password is not advisable and may not necessarily resolve SDM log-in problems.

To change the SDM password, you can use the SDM command line interface instead. The syntax for changing the SDM password is the following:

sdm changepassword sdmhome=<...> newpassword=<...> [password=]

where the parameter password is the old password. Since 6.30 SP5, this parameter has been set optional so that the password can be changed without reference to its current value. Consult the SDM Command Line Interface Manual in /usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/SDM/program/doc/SDMCommandLineDoc630_en_final.pdf, for more information.

Also, follow up with SAP notes 756084 and 701654.
