<div dir="ltr">Hi Lury,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for the reply. I am not trying to use Ironic to change the BMC password. I am changing the password directly on the system, independently of Ironic. Then after that I change the password in Ironic. But it doesn't seem to update in Ironic and any operations on the node fail with a redfish authentication error. After restarting the conductor, node operations work again.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Jul 15, 2022 at 6:24 PM Iury Gregory <<a href="mailto:iurygregory@gmail.com">iurygregory@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Wade,<div><br></div><div>If I understood correctly, you have a node already deployed and you want to change the redfish BMC password via Ironic, this is not possible.
