Hi Casandra, this is what I have:
[root@hpc3-xcat-1 xcat]# tabdump passwd #key,username,password,cryptmethod,authdomain,comments,disable "omapi","xcat_key","NUY4TWhCVnpkOWE5eVFQVWJ5QnJwOGxNY0FrbTY3MUY=",,,, I did not have a password set for root all this time. in version 2.16 , is this required now? How do I set a root password in password table? thanks.
