Changing the Root User Password
For yuuvis® RAD version >= 6.12
The usage of the root user for connecting the microservices to the core-service has been replaced by a shared secret API key that is used to authenticate the core-service's internal system user that always has full rights.
Please see "Enabling the System User Login for Microservices" for instructions on configuring the shared secret API key.
For yuuvis® RAD version < 6.12
The yuuvis® RAD root user is preconfigured with every installation. This user must exist and always has to have full rights on all object types because the yuuvis® RAD components use this user to communicate with each other.
Thus, changing the password of this user makes changes to all yuuvis® RAD components necessary. To change the root user password, follow these steps:
- Go to management-studio > Organization > root-user to change the user's password.
- Stop all yuuvis® RAD components (services and applications).
- In the <service-manager>\config\application-red.yml file , change the value of the "enaio.dms.password" key to match the new password.
- In the <rendition-plus>\webapps\osrenditioncache\WEB-INF\classes\config\config.properties file, change the value of the "admin.password" key to match the new password.
- In the <rendition-plus>\webapps\renditionplus\WEB-INF\classes\config\config.properties file, change the value of the "admin.password" key to match the new password.
- If applicable, change the saved password in the enterprise-manager, designer, agent, and in the browser.
- If applicable, change the configuration of custom microservices and third-party components that access yuuvis® RAD.
- Restart all yuuvis® RAD components. The password has now been changed successfully.
If you or any application enters the wrong password 3 times, the user account will be permanently locked until an administrator unlocks it again. Until that time, none of the yuuvis® components can access the dms-service. This will result in failed searches or object indexing. Also, inconsistencies may emerge.
