Modify the da_admin password on either a DA server or DA agent.

1. To change the da_admin password for a DA server:
   1. Navigate to $Sybase\DA-15_5\server\<instance_name>\security\.
   2. Run the platform-dependent command.
      • Windows

        passwd.bat

      • UNIX

        ./passwd.sh

   3. Follow the on-screen instructions. Restart the DA server for the password change to take effect.
2. To change the da_admin password for a DA agent:
   1. Navigate to $Sybase\DA-15_5\agent\<instance_name>\security\.
   2. Run the platform-dependent command.
      • Windows

        passwd.bat

      • UNIX

        ./passwd.sh
