SIMS/FMS Summer 2022 Upgrade – changes to ‘sysman’ user password

Brought in for the Summer 2022 upgrade – to improve system security, it is now a requirement that the password assigned to the ‘Sysman’ login is changed to a strong password.

The replacement strong password must contain a minimum of eight characters including one alphabetic, one numeric and one special character.

If this is not changed before the upgrade on 22/7/22 the first time the sysman user logs in they will be immediately prompted to change the password to a strong password.
