The PATROL Agent(PA) default account information is stored in the/AgentSetup/defaultAccount configuration variable. 
By default, this account is used to install PA. However, the account can be changed that the PA runs under.
If the password of the account is changed at the OS level or if it is required to change the account username or password, 
pconfig utility can be used to change the PA default account:

On Unix, below steps are to be executed before using the pconfig utility:

1. cd Patrol3
. ./patrolrc.sh    then run the below steps.

2. Run the pconfig +get command to get the current configuration and save it to a file.

Syntax: pconfig +get -p <portnumber> > <filepath>

Example: pconfig +get -p 3182 > /tmp/pconfig.txt (For UNIX OS)    

3. Go to the $PATROL_HOME/bin directory and run the Encryption Utility to generate the encrypted password. The output of the following command will be the encrypted password.

Syntax: pwd_encrypt <Enter the plain-text password here>

Example: pwd_encrypt patrol1234
$-2$-$A88CA7BD3DADDDFFC85FFF1CCCE8C383

4.Enter the Username and Encrypted Password in the /AgentSetup/defaultAccount in the pconfig.txt file generated in the second step.

Example: "/AgentSetup/defaultAccount" = { REPLACE = "patrol/$-2$-$A88CA7BD3DADDDFFC85FFF1CCCE8C383" },

5. Reload the PA configuration. 

Example: pconfig +Reload  /tmp/pconfig.txt

6. Restart PA

pconfig +RESTART
