Note: | This functionality does not apply if Essbase Server is in EPM System security mode. |
If you have permissions to Create/Delete Users and Groups for Essbase Server, you can change a user's Essbase Server password.
If the user is also an Administration Services user, the user's Essbase Administration Server user properties (Essbase Servers tab) are updated automatically. The user's Essbase Administration Server password is not affected.
If you change a user's Essbase Server password outside Administration Services (for example, through MaxL or ESSCMD), to synchronize the passwords, you must manually update the user's Essbase Administration Server user properties.
To change a user's Essbase Server password:
From Enterprise View or a custom view, under the appropriate Essbase Server node, expand the Security node.
Under the Security node, double-click the Users node.
In the Users window, select a user.
Right-click and select Edit user properties.
In the User Properties window, select the User Info tab, and enter the new password.
In Confirm password, reenter the new password.
Click Apply.
Essbase changes the user's password on Essbase Server and, if applicable, updates the user's Essbase Administration Server user profile.
Optional: Propagate the user's password to other Essbase Servers.
