To reset the Update Manager password of your Gravio Node, you need to find and delete the updmgr.dat file:
1. Stop HubKit
If HubKit is running, stop HubKit. You can do this from your Tray Application (Windows) or Menubar (macOS). On Linux or the Gravio Hub you can shut down the Gravio processes using the command line.
| Linux/Gravio Hub | docker-compose down then stop. |
2. Deleting configuration files
Depending on the platform you are using, the configuration file you need to delete is in a different path:
| Windows | C:\ProgramData\Hubkit\updmgr\updmgr.dat |
| macOS | /Library/Application Support/HubKit/updmgr/updmgr.dat |
| Linux/Gravio Hub | /etc/opt/graviohub/updmgr/updmgr.dat |
3. Log in to the configuration manager and set a new password
The password for the Configuration Manager has now been reset to gravio; please log in using http://<IP of machine>:8080 and set a new password.
Restart Gravio HubKit in the Configuration in case it hasn’t started.
| Linux/Gravio Hub | docker-compose up -d then start. |
Important note
Deleting the updmgr.dat file will reset the password and disconnect the connection to the Gravio Coordinator. Therefore you will have to reconnect to the Gravio Coordinator. You watch on YouTube how to reconnect your Node to your Coordinator here: Linking the Node to the Coordinator
