Changing DBMS credentials

Sometimes, you may need to change DBMS credentials, for example, in order to perform a credential rotation for security purposes.

To change Administration Server database credentials in a Linux environment by using the klsrvconfig utility:

  1. Stop Administration Server. Run the following commands:

    systemctl stop kladminserver_srv.service

    systemctl stop klnagent_srv.service

    systemctl stop klactprx_srv.service

    systemctl stop klwebsrv_srv.service

  2. Run the klsrvconfig utility:

    sudo /opt/kaspersky/ksc64/sbin/klsrvconfig -set_dbms_cred

  3. Specify a new account name. You should specify credentials of an account that exists in the DBMS.
  4. Enter a new password.
  5. Specify the new password for confirmation.
  6. Run Administration Server. Run the following commands:

    systemctl start kladminserver_srv.service

    systemctl start klnagent_srv.service

    systemctl start klactprx_srv.service

    systemctl start klwebsrv_srv.service

The Administration Server database credentials are changed.
