TM1 Forum

Hi All,

I have installed TM1 v9.5.1 on Windows 2003 SP2 machine.
After installation I have created a application, in which there exists only one admin user. Recently I have reset the password of the admin user, now I forgot the password.

Is there anyway wherein I can rollback the password of the Admin user.

Please guide me over the process.

Thank you,
Radhika

If you bring the server down, delete the security cubes and restart the server it will rebuild the security cubes with only the admin user in place with a blank password. The problem with this is if you have other users setup it will remove them. I awlays create another admin user at the very begining and use that rather than admin itself. Always keeps things simpler,

I can't remember right now, but if you just delete the }ClientProperties cube, would that still erase all the users from the server? This should be enough to zero out all the passwords.

Yes, deleting the }ClientProperties cube erase all the passwords.

If you do not want to erase all the other passwords, but admin and you have at least one process
which can be run by any non admin user who can help you then you can try the following:

1. Create a process in a dev environment or (in a local server) which add a new user and assign the user to admin group.
2. Shut down the server.
3. Replace the process (which can be run by other user) temporary with the new pro file.
4. Start the server.
5. Run the process and you have a new admin theoretically. I have not tried it!
6. Change the Admin password.
7. Stop the server.
8. Copy back the pro file.
9. Start the server.
