Changing the Studio database password

Studio requires a relational database to store configuration and state, including component configuration, user permissions, and system settings. When you create a BDDCS instance, the Studio database with a corresponding username and password is created for you.

To change the database password:

  1. Change the password in the database server.
    For example, in MySQL, the command is similar to: 
    SET PASSWORD FOR 'studio'@'%' = PASSWORD('bdd');
    For specific details, see the database documentation for the particular database type the administrator installed (Oracle 11g, 12c, or MySQL).
  2. Change it in WebLogic Server.
    1. In the WebLogic Administration Console for the BDD domain, go to Services > Data Sources.
    2. Delete the existing BDDStudioPool.
    3. Create a new BDDStudioPool with the updated password.
    For additional details, see the WebLogic Administration Console Online Help.
  3. Restart Studio.
  4. Change it in the BDDCS dashboard.
    1. Select the Update Credentials option in the BDDCS dashboard in Cloud MyServices
    2. Specify a new username and password.
      For more information, see the BDDCS Getting Started Guide.
