Disable the Admin Password Expiration

By default, the administrative password for the Carbon Black Cloud Workload appliance expires in 90 days. However, you can disable the password expiry after initial installation and configuration.

If your admin password expires, you cannot log in and manage components. Additionally, any task or API call that requires the admin password to execute results with a failure. To resolve such cases in advance, you can disable the password expiry so the password never expires.

Procedure

1. Log in to the vCenter Server at https://vCenter IP/Domain address using admin credentials.
2. Open the Appliance > General > Password Settings tab.
   By default, the admin password expiry option is enabled.
3. To disable the expiration of the admin password, click the related toggle switch.
   The toggle changes its state to Inactive.
