Thanks Wei that has worked great: systemctl stop cloudstack-management mysql -u root -p ALTER USER 'cloud'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'newPassword'; flush privileges; exit
#test new password: mysql -u cloud -p newPassword #re-setup cloudstack: cloudstack-setup-databases cloud:newPassword@localhost -i 10.25.x.x cloudstack-setup-management systemctl daemon-reload tail -f /var/log/cloudstack/management/management-server.log Many thanks, Jim
