EM 24ai: How to Modify the Password for SYSMAN and related Users in the Enterprise Manager 24ai (Doc ID 3069507.1)

Last updated on FEBRUARY 24, 2025

Applies to:

Enterprise Manager Base Platform - Version 24.1.0.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Goal

This article provides steps for modifying the password of SYSMAN and other Enterprise Manager (EM) Cloud Control users in the OMS configuration and the Repository database in a Cloud Control system.
Simply changing the password in the repository database SYSMAN account is not sufficient as the password is also stored in the WebLogic Server (WLS) credential store. The OMS uses the SYSMAN account to log in to the repository database and if there is a mismatch in the password in the database SYSMAN account and in the OMS configuration, the OMS cannot start and function properly.

For steps to follow in the earlier Enterprise Manager versions, refer to:
