Neoview Database Administrator's Guide (R2.4)
Considerations for changePassword
• The changePassword command is created in the catalog.schema named neo.uaf. You must
either precede the command name with this catalog and schema name or set the default
catalog.schema to neo.uaf first: SET SCHEMA neo.uaf;
• The changePassword command must be performed by a user belonging to the MGR role.
• The changePassword command affects all segments in the Neoview platform.
• If a value for expirationDays and a value for expirationDate are both specified, the
password expiration is based on the expiration value that expires first.
Examples for changePassword
This example changes the password for a user named Henry. The new password HudsonBaY@7
is assigned to the user Henry. The expiration is set to 45 days with no expiration date specified.
CALL neo.uaf.changePassword ('Henry', 'HudsonBaY@7', 45, ' ', ?, ?);
