How to reset a lost sysadmin password on Apigee Edge OPDK 16.01?
I have seen the kbarticle about resetting the lost sysadmin password on Apigee Edge OPDK, from @jhunt@apigee.com. The description there says that it applies to "15.01 and newer". However, in OPDK 16.01, I cannot find a chpasswd-system.sh file anywhere in the system.
find /opt/apigee -name chpasswd-system.sh returns nothing.
How can I reset the sys admin password on openldap for Edge 16.01 ?
Unlike with the chpasswd-system.sh script in 15.01 to 15.07, additional steps are needed to also reset the UI password in 16.01.
The Ops guide lists all of them under "Reset System Admin Password":
- 1) On the UI node, stop the Edge UI:
> /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-ui stop
- 2) On the Management Server, run the following command to reset the password:
> /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-management-server change_sysadmin_password -o currentPW -n newPW
3) Edit the silent config file that you used to install the Edge UI to set the following properties:
APIGEE_ADMINPW=newPW
SMTPHOST=smtp.gmail.com
SMTPPORT=465
SMTPUSER=foo@gmail.com
SMTPPASSWORD=bar
SMTPSSL=y
Note that you have to include the SMTP properties when passing the new password because all properties on the UI are reset.
- 4) Use the apigee-setup utility to reset the password on the Edge UI from the config file:> /<inst_root>/apigee/apigee-setup/bin/setup.sh -p ui -f configFile
- 5) Start the Edge UI on the UI node:
> /<inst_root>/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-ui start
