    Reset Password

    When using Internal security, any user password can be reset.

    Requirements

    • All cluster nodes are completely shut down. See Startup/Shutdown for more information.

    • This command is run on the master node.

    Syntax

    Reset password command
    <DREMIO_HOME>/bin/dremio-admin set-password \
    -u <ACCOUNT_USER> \
    -p <NEW_PASSWORD>
    

    Options

    To obtain a list of options on the command line:

    List reset password command options
    ./dremio-admin set-password -h
    

    Restore options:

    Reset password command options output
      -h, --help
        show usage
      -p, --password
        password
      -u, --username
        username of user
    

    note:

    If the --password option is specified without a value, the utility prompts for one interactively.

    Example

    This following example resets the password for user123.

    Reset password example
    ./dremio-admin set-password -u user123 -p dremio123
