I can do that but it appears the installer is using DMSCUTIL to perform the migration. Is there some command line I can use in the interim to migrate the password (Instead of having to reset it and set it on the newly installed client). Tom On Wed, Dec 4, 2019 at 7:02 PM Billy Ward wrote: >

That would not work as I don't know the old password. Passwords get automatically forced to update from the storage server end periodically and the only place they are "known" is in the encrypted registry entry. The only way I can "know" as password is to ask our storage team to reset it on the
