Environment
Sentinel 5.1.3
Sentinel 5.1.3 Agent Manager
Situation
During the installation of Sentinel 5.1.3 (or earlier) the
administrator is prompted for the Collector Manager password.
If entered this is required whenever the Collector Manager is
accessed from the Collector Builder. If this password is lost
it must be reset.
Resolution
On the server running the Collector Manager run the following
command:
$ESEC_HOME/wizard/agent-manager.sh password newPassword
or
%ESEC_HOME%\wizard\agent-manager.bat password newPassword
It is important that the system be secure from the default installation to prevent random users from running this command. By default the security is there but overriding it could inadvertently give others access to the Collector Manager. Servers generally should not have users logging in interactively which can also prevent this from being a problem.
The Collector Manager will be restarted during this process.
$ESEC_HOME/wizard/agent-manager.sh password newPassword
or
%ESEC_HOME%\wizard\agent-manager.bat password newPassword
