Overview

The command line syntax for each execution of the CLI command, uagcmd, must specify a single CLI function, required / optional Global parameters, and required / optional function-specific parameters. You must use the required Global parameters to connect to OMS Servers and to log on to a Controller (User ID and Password).

Universal Controller supports the following CLI functions for Passwords, which are listed alphabetically on this page.

Syntax, parameters, and examples for each function are provided.

The authenticated user must have the ops_admin user role.

Syntax

uagcmd ops-change-user-password global parameters user-id=userid new-password=password
