Resetting password of the OpsCenter Security Admin

The Security Admin can reset his or her password manually through OpsCenter Authentication Service (OpsCenter AT).
For security reasons, the OpsCenter Security Administrator should change the password after it was reset. OpsCenter displays the Change Password page when you try to log in after your password was reset.
