Resetting security for an HCP tenant
Before you begin
To reset security for an HCP tenant, you need the administrator role.
Procedure
In the top-level menu of the System Management Console, click Tenants.
In the list of tenants, click the name of the tenant for which you want to reset security.
In the row of tabs below the tenant name, click Settings.
In the Settings panel, click Reset Security.
In the Reset Security window, select Local to reset the passwords of all locally authenticated HCP user accounts with the security role, or select Active Directory to grant the security role to a new or existing group account.
If you selected Local:
- In the Password field, type a new password for the locally authenticated user accounts with the security role. Passwords can be up to 64 characters long, are case sensitive, and can contain any valid UTF-8 characters, including white space. The minimum length for a password is the tenant-specific minimum password length.
To be valid, a password must include at least one character from two of these three groups: alphabetic, numeric, and other.
- In the Confirm Password field, type the password again.
If you selected Active Directory:
- In the Group field, enter the name of the AD group account that corresponds to the new HCP group account that you want to create or the existing HCP group to which you want to grant the security role.
- In the Password field, type a new password for the locally authenticated user accounts with the security role. Passwords can be up to 64 characters long, are case sensitive, and can contain any valid UTF-8 characters, including white space. The minimum length for a password is the tenant-specific minimum password length.
Click Reset Security.
