Change WebLogic Administration User Password

Introduction

Below are the steps to change the Oracle WebLogic Administration user password. You will change the password on the run file system and then copy the changes to the patch file system.

The steps below assume you know the existing password. A lost or forgotten password has a different process.

Change the Node Manager Password

Before changing the Administration user password, you must first change the Node Manager password by doing the following:

• Log in to the WebLogic Server Administration console
• In the ‘Change Center’ panel, click the ‘Lock & Edit’ button
• In the ‘Domain Structure’ panel, click on the ‘EBS_domain’ link
• In the ‘Settings for EBS_domain’, select the ‘Security’ tab
• Click on the ‘Advanced’ link
• Enter your new Administration user password in the ‘Node Manager password’ and ‘Confirm Node Manager Password’ fields
• Click the ‘Save’ button at the bottom of the page
• In the ‘Change Center’ panel, click on ‘Activate changes’ and log out

Change the Administration User Password

Step 1. Shut down all application tier services except the WebLogic Administration Server

On the primary application server, log in as the applmgr user and run the following command

unix> $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adstpall.sh -skipNM -skipAdmin

If you have other application servers, shut down all application tier services

unix> $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adstpall.sh

Step 2. Change the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration User password

As applmgr on the primary application server

unix> . /opt/app/oracle/apps/EBSapps.env run
unix> perl $FND_TOP/patch/115/bin/txkUpdateEBSDomain.pl -action=updateAdminPassword

Step 3. Start all services on all application servers

As applmgr on the primary

unix> $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adstrtal.sh

Step 4. Run fs_clone to change the password on the patch file system

Open a new terminal window, log in as applmgr and run the following

unix> . /opt/app/oracle/apps/EBSapps.env run
unix> adop phase=fs_clone
