• If the local authentication server is used:

  1. From the Lenovo XClarity Administrator title bar, click the user-actions menu (), and then click Change Password. The Change Password dialog is displayed.

     
     
     

  2. Enter the current password.

  If you updated Microsoft Active Directory with a new password for the client account that is used to bind XClarity Administrator to the external authentication server, ensure that you also update the new password in the XClarity Administrator web interface (see Setting up an external LDAP authentication server).
