Your VMware Integrated OpenStack deployment includes credentials that allow OpenStack to access and connect with your LDAP server, NSX Manager, and vCenter Server instance. You can modify these credentials in the VMware Integrated OpenStack virtual appliance.

Important: If you want to change the NSX-T Data Center password, perform the following steps:
  1. Log in to a controller node and run the systemctl stop neutron-server command to stop the Neutron server service.
  2. Change the password in NSX-T Data Center.
  3. Change the password in VMware Integrated OpenStack as described in the following section.

The Neutron server service will restart after you change the password in VMware Integrated OpenStack.

Note: In VMware Integrated OpenStack 5.1.0.3 and later, you can change the user name and password for all management and compute vCenter Server instances. If the user name or password of a vCenter Server instance has changed, but the instance is not displayed in the Change Passwords panel, you must add the instance to your deployment and specify the new user name and password. For instructions, see Add a vCenter Server Instance to Your Deployment.

Procedure

  1. In the vSphere Client, select Menu > VMware Integrated OpenStack.
  2. Click OpenStack Deployments and open the Manage tab.
  3. On the Settings tab, click Change Password.
    The Change Passwords panel contains text boxes for updating the current LDAP server, NSX Manager, and vCenter Server credentials.
  4. Enter the updated credentials and click Submit.

    To retain the original settings for a component, leave the text boxes blank.
