Changing the Siebel Diagnostic Tool User's Password

This topic describes how you change the password of a Siebel Diagnostic Tool user in the Siebel Management Framework. The Siebel Diagnostic Tool is installed with the Siebel Management Server. During the installation and configuration of the Siebel Management Server with Diagnostic Tool, you specify a user name and password for a Siebel user who accesses the Siebel Diagnostic Tool. For details, see Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. For information about using the Siebel Diagnostic Tool, see Siebel System Monitoring and Diagnostics Guide.

The following procedure describes how you change the password of the Siebel user who accesses the Siebel Diagnostic Tool. Before you carry out the procedure, you first change this Siebel user's password in the Siebel Enterprise.

To change the Siebel Diagnostic Tool user's password

1. Stop the Siebel Management Server.

   For details, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

2. Navigate to the MGTINSTALL_ROOT\tomcat\conf directory, where MGTINSTALL_ROOT is the installation directory of the Siebel Management Server.
3. Open the tomcat-users.xml file and change the value of the password parameter for the Siebel Diagnostic Tool user whose password you want to change.

   The following example shows a Siebel Diagnostic Tool user, SiebelDiagTool, with an existing password, SiebDiagToolPassword:

   user username="SiebelDiagTool" password="SiebDiagToolPassword" roles="configurator" /

   In the above example, you replace SiebDiagToolPassword with the new password.

4. Save and close the tomcat-users.xml file.
5. Restart the Siebel Management Server.

   For details, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

   The Siebel Diagnostic Tool user whose password you changed in this procedure must now log in to the Siebel Diagnostic Tool using the new password.
