[ovirt-users] admin user locked?

[Gianluca Cecchi]

Hello,
yesterday I installed a 4.0.6 ovirt engine on a CentOS 7.3 server and I was
then able to connect.
Today I try to login, I mispelled some times the password and then I get
this in web admin portal

Cannot Login. User Account is Disabled or Locked, Please contact your
system administrator.

It gives this method both if I input the correct password or a wrong one...

I tried this but it seems to change nothing

[root at ovmgr1 ~]# ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool user password-reset admin
--password-valid-to='2018-12-31 23:59:59Z'
Password:
Reenter password:
updating user admin...
user updated successfully

Watching egine.log I see that I used a wrong password because:

2017-01-21 18:59:43,792 ERROR
[org.ovirt.engine.core.sso.servlets.InteractiveAuthServlet] (default
task-6) [] Cannot authenticate user 'admin at internal': The user name or
password is incorrect.
2017-01-21 19:00:18,258 INFO
[org.ovirt.engine.extension.aaa.jdbc.core.Authentication] (default task-13)
[] locking user: admin due to consecutive failures

what can I do to reset and set a new password in case?

BTW: does this mean that an attacker knowing the ip could simply stop admin
from working using some times a casual password in general?
I know that admin is te default one, and should not be used probably in
production... but anyway...

Thanks,
Gianluca
