更改 ESXi root 密码并将其与 ACM 同步的步骤:

1.通过 putty 使用 root 用户登录到 ACM,并停止 webapp 服务。
命令:service dataprotection_webapp stop
 
2。通过 putty 使用 root 用户登录 ESXi,并将 ESXI root 的密码更改为通用密码。
命令 :passwd
 
注意:提供您在 ACM 初始配置期间提供的通用密码。

3.通过 putty
 
4,使用 root 用户身份登录到 ACM。创建 InfrastructureComponents.xml
 
命令:cd /usr/local/dataprotection/var/configmgr/server_data/config
 
命令:cp InfrastructureComponents.xml original_InfrastructureComponents.xml
 
5 的副本。编辑基础架构文件,并*仅*修改“password”标记,如下所示:

在修改之前,该文件如下所示:
 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<InfrastructureComponents>
    <ACM>
        <ipAddress>_customer_ip</ipAddress>
    </ACM>
    <ESXiHosts>
        <ESXi>
            <ipAddress>_customer_ip</ipAddress>
            <privateIpAddress>_customer_ip</privateIpAddress>
            <username>root</username>
            <password isEncrypted="true">nKWguK4OP0WU76mnsCY1+ScouI4Bgt9aJBtaYpLoHiO6XjXQuQ==</password>
            <isIdpaUserCreated>false</isIdpaUserCreated>
            <isRootPasswordChanged>false</isRootPasswordChanged>
        </ESXi>
    </ESXiHosts>
</InfrastructureComponents>


 Where the field highlighted in yellow can be different for different system, it is just a encrypted string.
 
 After modification, the file looks like this:
 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<InfrastructureComponents>
    <ACM>
        <ipAddress>_customer_ip</ipAddress>
    </ACM>
    <ESXiHosts>
        <ESXi>
            <ipAddress>_customer_ip</ipAddress>
            <privateIpAddress>_customer_ip</privateIpAddress>
            <username>root</username>
            <password isEncrypted="false">**COMMON_PASSWORD**</password>
            <isIdpaUserCreated>false</isIdpaUserCreated>
            <isRootPasswordChanged>false</isRootPasswordChanged>
        </ESXi>
    </ESXiHosts>
</InfrastructureComponents>

Where **COMMON_PASSWORD** is your common password.

 
6. Start the ACM Service using the below command:
Command: service dataprotection_webapp start
 
7. Wait 10 minutes. Check the InfrastructureComponents.xml and make sure that the password tag value has changed for 'isEncrypted' = 'true'.
