Changing ALOM Account Passwords

Changing Your ALOM Password

You can change your own ALOM account password from the sc> prompt. You do not need to have any permissions to change your own password.

At the sc> prompt, type the following command:

sc> password

When you use this command, ALOM prompts you for your current password. If you enter the password correctly, it prompts you twice to enter the new password.

For example:

sc> password
password: Changing password for username
Enter current password: ******
Enter new password: ******
Re-enter new password: ******
sc>

Changing the ALOM Password for Another User

Note: You must have u level user permission to change another user's password.

There are two ways to change the password for another user's ALOM account:

• At the sc> prompt, use the userpassword command.
• At the # (superuser) prompt in the system console, use the scadm userpassword command.
