Change Default System Password

Kloudfuse installations have a default password that you can change easily. We recommend that you do this promptly after you complete the installation.

Follow these steps:

Generate a secret using the new password:

# base encode your password.
echo -n '<your-custom-password>' | base64
<encoded-output>

Create a kubernetes secret file:

# Create a yaml (custom-kfuse-credentials.yaml) file for the secret.
apiVersion: v1
data:
  admin-user: YWRtaW4=
  admin-password: <encoded-output>
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: custom-kfuse-credentials
type: Opaque

Create Kubernetes secret object:

kubectl apply -f custom-kfuse-credentials.yaml

Update your custom_values.yaml file.

If you install Kloudfuse on a shared kubernetes section, remove comments and adjust the tolerations and nodeselector sections:

# auth - Authentication configuration for Kloudfuse

  config:
    # AUTH_TYPE: Default auth type uses default password of 'password' for admin user
    # Set to "none" for no authentication

    existingSecret: "auth-credentials" (4)

Upgrade the helm using the updated custom_values.yaml file. VERSION.NUM.BER translates to the three-digit representation of the most current release of Kloudfuse: 2.7.4, 3.0.0, 3.2.0, and so on.
```
helm upgrade --install -n kfuse \
kfuse oci://us-east1-docker.pkg.dev/mvp-demo-301906/kfuse-helm/kfuse \
--version <VERSION.NUM.BER> \ (1)
-f custom_values.yaml
```
1 version: Use the version number of the most current Kloudfuse release; the pattern looks like 3.0.0, 3.1.3, and so on.
