Update Account Passwords

You may need to update account passwords occasionally, for example when security policies require regular password resets. Password changes or security policies can affect the following types of credentials:

  • SQL Server Service Account
  • Recovry Service Account
  • Domain Controller Backup Service Account

SQL Server Service Account​

The SQL Server service account grants access to the SQL Server database. You can update it through the Identity Recovery Configuration Utility. See the Update SQL Server Service Account Password topic for additional information.

Recovery Service Account​

The Recovery service account runs the Recovery Console service and performs the domain backups. You can update it on the Domains page in the Recovery Console. See the Edit Domain Configuration topic for additional information.
