KBI 312084 Update Argent Omega Service Account and Password

Version

Argent Omega 2.2A-2307-B and later

Date

Sunday, 17 September 2023

Summary

Though Argent Omega service account and password can be edited in Service Control Manager (SCM), it is inconvenient if there are many Argent Omega Generators to update.

Typical cases include:

• Pooled Primary Generators in Argent Advanced Clustering

• Secondary Generators using Mother-Daughter Architecture

• Offload Generator deployed in DMZ

Argent Omega provides command line utility ArgentOmegaCLI.exe to handle this.

This utility must be executed locally on Argent Omega Generator machine.

The user should log in locally or remotely to Argent Omega Generator machine; Run Command Prompt (cmd.exe) as administrator; Change directory to Argent Omega home path, which is typically C:\Argent\ArgentOmega; Then run following command.

ArgentOmegaCLI /service /account:xxxx /password:xxxx

When running this utility on Primary Generator, it will update service account and password on all Pooled Primary Generators, any Secondary Generator and Offload Generator that Primary Generator has direct access to.

For Remote Secondary Generators and Offload Generators, the utility has to be executed locally.
