Windows: How do I change the password for the workload execution user?

  1. Disable the applications that run as the execution user.

    Note:

    If you are not sure about which applications will be affected, consult the consumer properties; faiure to do so may cause unexpected behavior after the password changes since Windows will prevent application processes (SSM, SIM, etc) from accessing resources, such as the shared file system, network, etc.

  2. Change the execution user password.

  3. Execute the following command to set the new password in EGO:

    egosh ego execpasswd -u user_name -x password

  4. Enable the applications that were disabled for the password change.
