Changing Instance Passwords

On the DCS console, you can change the password required for accessing your DCS instance.

  • The new password will not take effect in the client until the client is restarted.

Prerequisites

At least one DCS instance has been created.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the DCS console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region and a project.
  3. In the navigation pane, choose Cache Manager.
  4. Choose More > Change Password in the same row as the chosen instance.
  5. In the displayed dialog box, set Old Password, New Password, and Confirm Password.

    After 5 consecutive incorrect password attempts, the account for accessing the chosen DCS instance will be locked for 5 minutes. Passwords cannot be changed during the lockout period.

  6. In the Change Password dialog box, click OK to confirm the password change.
