Lost dbadmin management console password

RCasey

Lost dbadmin management console password in development. I can log into my database using admintools but have forgotten the management console password. It seems it was different from the database password. Any ideas on how to reset the management console dbadmin password?

You can try this

sudo /etc/init.d/vertica_consoled stop;
rm –rf /opt/vconsole/mcdb
/etc/init.d/vertica_consoled start

Note : It will bring you back to the initial state when you first launched MC.

I appreciate that and will keep it for future reference.
