We have created a local account in vsphere.local sso.
but the password for this account is about to expiry.
we do not want password to expire.
So, i followed the article below to make the password non-expiring
https://www.vxav.fr/2018-05-04-set-password-of-an-sso-user-to-never-expire/#:~:text=In%20vCenter%2C%20users%20created%20…
But I still see the password expiry prompt when I log into vCenter using this local account.
Is this a bug?
Hi there,
Check the comments on the link you provided. Other people having the same issue and the createor recreated the same. Looks like a bug.
Maybe support can assist you, did you try opening a ticket with them for this?
Support ticket? :smileyhappy:
Nicoloas, after the checking the comment, I thought of putting it here. Google searching (it might be wrong) does not index it.
Not sure whether this is a bug in a given version/build.
Anyway, other than setting the maximum lifetime to "0", you may set it to "9999" to see whether this works.

Right Now I have set it higher value and it works.
Thanks Andre.
so I can confirm it is bug.
Password did not expired.
It is just that message does not away when you change the password to non-expiry.
Hope it helps someone.
