Unlocking System Manager CLI user login account

Last Updated : Dec 23, 2022 |

Condition

Before Release 10.1.0.2, when a user logs into the CLI and types an incorrect password for three consecutive times, the user account gets locked. However, the user account unlocks automatically after a specific period of time.

From Release 10.1.0.2, if a user logs into the CLI and the user account gets locked, the user account does not unlock automatically.

Solution

Procedure

  1. Log in to System Manager CLI as root.
  2. Run the following command: 
    faillock --dir /var/log/faillock --user cust_user --reset

    System Manager unlocks the user account.
