vRA 8.1 Tenant admin password reset

Hi,

Is there any possibility to reset vRA's tenant admin password within vIDM? The admin account exists within System Directory so it is not AD account.

I know that there is an "Reset Password" button in the vIDM Admin Console but it tries to send reset password email and I have no email servers yet.

I will appreciate any help how to reset/recover forgotten password.

Thanks,

Michal

Hey @MichalCz,

You need to follow the next procedure: https://vmguru.com/2016/05/resetting-root-admin-password-vmware-identity-manager/

That procedure starts with the root password but below you will see the way of also changing the admin password of the System Local domain.

As always, take an snapshot first.
