IAM Database User Account Management
- See also: IAM Database Connection Information
Step 1: Authenticate to the database where the password needs to be reset.
Step 2: Run the following SQL command, replacing [username goes here] with your user account name and replacing [password goes here] with your new password:
Example: To reset the user scott password to tiger you would run:
ALTER USER scott IDENTIFIED BY "tiger";
Step 3: Success! Your password has been reset.
Step 4: Update your password within your application to match.
NOTE: If you are resetting your password in PHEXPP or PHEXPT, you need to make sure you are resetting your password in both databases (PHEXPP1 and PHEXPP2, or PHEXPT1 and PHEXPT2), there is no replication between databases.
