That's two different questions...

The engine's database, if created locally by setup, has a random password, and

you can see all the credentials in /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/10-setup-database.conf .

The REST API is accessible using an engine's user/password, not the database's ones.

You supplied the password for the user 'admin' during setup.

Thank you very much. That worked perfectly. One more question. What's the default username and password for the engine database for accessing through REST?

I guess this is related to[1].

Please try:

# engine-setup --otopi-environment="OVESETUP_SYSTEM/shmmax=int:68719476736"
