Hi
I was trying to change the password for the Xen hosts and I was reading the "Changing Host Password" chapter from CloudPlatform 3.0.6 Administrator's Guide.
The command:
mysql> update cloud.host set password='password' where id...
fails as there is no "password" column in that table. I thought that's a typo and I tried to figure out which table would actually have this column and be related to the hosts but I'm lost.
Does anyone knows what I'm missing?
Thanks,
Daniel
It looks like this info is now stored in the host_detail table.
You will need to
update host_detail set value = <new password hash> where host_id = <your host's id> and name = 'password';
I'm not sure what hash technique is used, unfortunately. If you have another host with the right password, you might be able to copy its value.

You can use the updateHostPassword API command for this. It only works for XenServer hosts/pools.
