Avoid password expiry on NSX managers and edges
To avoid automatic password expiry for root, audit and admin users on both NSX manager and Edges use:
- SSH to manager using individual IP (not cluster IP) using admin credentials
- Run following commands to prevent password-expiration for the three accounts:
- set user admin password-expiration 9999
- set user audit password-expiration 9999
- set user root password-expiration 9999
- Setting value to 9999 might be better then disabling password expiry all together as some checks might require password expiry to be enabled.
- Validate settings have taken effect:
- get user admin password-expiration
- get user audit password-expiration
- get user root password-expiration
- Do the same for the Edges
