    I'm curious to learn how often the owners of the IBM Sterling MFT solution conduct DR tests annually to ensure preparedness for unforeseen circumstances.

    We have 2 Data Centers, and we are active in one of them, and switch usually 2X a year between them.

    Hi Attila,

    We also have 2 Data Centers, one active, one inactive. I'm wondering if you could help me with a situation we have every time we swap servers. We are required to change the Local User passwords annually, after we update the Local User password in Proxies on the active server, of course we change the inactive server as well. Then when we swap to the previously inactive server, none of those passwords stuck so we have to go in and update each one again. I cannot figure out what we are missing when we do this or if there is a config setting???

    Hi Amy,

    Sorry, we do not use Proxies, so I can't help you. Probably best to open a support case, to solve it.. 

    Thanks,

    Attila

    Hi Amy, which product are you using and how do you update your Proxy entry?

    When you update a Local User password within a Proxy in IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for Microsoft Windows, the password is always stored and will stick until you update it again.
