Globally Resetting Jobset Passwords

[goodgosh]

Is there any way to globally reset jobset passwords in WLM? Changing the passwords individually is too labor intensive.

Depends on your version of TNG and OS, but you should be able to do it like this:
Way 1)
----------
from a cmd prompt / telnet session-
cautil sel jobset id=* alt jobset subpass=<new password here>

You may want to change an individual jobset before doing a global replace, or change a subset of jobsets.
eg - cautil sel jobset id=YourJobset alt jobset subpass=password.
----------
alternatively you can output all the jobsets to file and batch import them (it amounts to the same thing really).
Run "cauexpr -s".
This will output all jobset definitions to a file.
Then change all the "DEFINE" words to "ALTER".
Then remove all information other than the jobset id and the subpass field (replace the password appropriately).
The file will look a bit like this:
ALTER JOBSET ID=YOUR_NAME SUBPASS=YOUR_PASSWORD
Then import it by running this command - "cautil -f <filename>".
-------------
If you need more info on cautil goto Books On-Line - CA Reference Guide. On the "find" page type in "cautil" and scroll through the topics until you find one called "cautil syntax by function"
That'l tell you all you want to know.

BTW, I'd back things up before doing a global replace like this if I were you.
