Hi,

In our MDM, someone has accidently change the password for the Server. As an Admin, how can I reset the MDM Server level Password without knowing the old password.

MDM Server password is stored in the mdm.ini file in your MDM Server installation directory.

Find the "MDM Server" scetion, "MDS Scone" setting. Change this line so it reads "MDS Scone=" and restart the MDM Server service.

This will remove the password.

Hope, this helps.

Thanks!

U may try and access the table: a2i_CM_users in the database and copy a known password into the pwd field of user "Admin".

Tanveer,

Only way to do it is go to underlying database, if you have access or a DBO can do that (with all permisions). In database every repository is saved under database tab, there Under tables--> you have mdm user table enteries and the password can be reset.

Otherwise you can not login to repository means no other way to do this.

I hope it will help. Please rewards if found helpful.
