DBA User Passwords

DBA User Passwords

To change the DBA user password, you must use the ChangeDBAPassword utility. The utility is in the Data Vault installation directory. On UNIX systems the file name is
ChangeDBAPassword.sh
and on Microsoft Windows systems the file name is
ChangeDBAPassword.bat
.
The following characters are valid for a DBA user password:
  • Upper and lower-case letters A-Z
  • Numbers 0 through 9
  • Special characters: @ # _ = , . ? ~ { }
On Microsoft Windows, if you use special characters in a password created with the ChangeDBAPassword utility, enclose the password string within double quotation marks. For example:
ChangeDBAPassword.bat demo1 "A=,B=,"
In the example above, the new password contains special characters so it is enclosed within double quotation marks.
If both the old and new passwords contain special characters, enclose both passwords within double quotation marks. For example:
ChangeDBAPassword.bat "A=,B=," "DEMO?#="
If either the new or old password begins with the number sign (#), you must enclose the password within double quotation marks. If you do not, the utility fails in UNIX environments.
Do not use the asterisk (*) character in the password.
