Problem with SDM

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hello All,

Some days back I have changed the administrator password for and since then my SDM password is not working.

Fo the same I changed the password in secure storage under Config tool.

But even after the restart of the cluster the change is not reflecting. So, I am now not able to deploy any application in NWDS.

I went to RemoteGUI and changed the password there as well but it does not work at all.

Let me know what am I missing or is there any other approach.

Regards

DK

Hi,

You can change the SDM password this way,

Go to /usr/sap/SID/JCxx/SDM/program in command prompt

1.Execute Stopserver or ./StopServer.sh ,if it is linux

2.sdm jstartup "mode=standalone"

3.sdm changepassword "newpassword=<newpassword>" (Here ,give the password,which you wanted to be accepted for SDM login)

4.sdm.sh jstartup "mode=integrated"

5. Execute Startserver

Ensure,same password is there is

1.Securestore

2.Useradministration administrator password

3.DBlogin password

Hello Usha,

Thanks for your response. I tried applying that and in the command promt it ran successfully. But, later when I visited the SAP MMC I found the SDM has stopped and has become grey.

I restarted the SDM but it is not becoming green any more.

I want to know whay that has happened and how can it be recovered.

Its very urgent.Looking ahead.

Hi there,

Try this:

Goto command prompt under :\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<no>\SDM\program\

Change the mode for SDM to standalone > sdm jstartup "mode=standalone"

For changing SDM password

>sdm changepassword "sdmhome=<drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<no>\SDM\program" "newpassword=<newpassword>"

Again change the mode of SDM to integrated > sdm jstartup "mode=integrated"

Hello Sean,

I am not sure how you do this. I went to run and then command promt. Typed in the location but it does not work.

It will be great if you can let me know step by step what should I enter in the command promt

Its really very urgent and pending from a long time.
