Very basic question: Some weeks ago I created an account on the Management Console and installed UMH on my laptop. Seems to work fine. But now I cannot login to the Management Console - it recognizes my userid (cannot create the account again) but rejects my password, and there is no option for ordering a new password. What can I do here?

In general we cannot reset passwords, but if you want to use the same e-mail for a new account, i can remove the old account for you (Just send me an E-Mail (

[email protected]

) from the e-mail address belonging to your account, so i can verify which account to delete) If you have created protocol-converters, data flow components or similar, i recommend exporting the configuration file (

sudo kubectl --kubeconfig /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml get configmap -n mgmtcompanion mgmtcompanion-config -o yaml > mgmtcompanion-config.yaml

) and later restore it using

sudo kubectl --kubeconfig /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml apply -f mgmtcompanion-config.yaml -n mgmtcompanion

Afterwards, you can create a new instance in your new account, and use the generated install command to "overwrite" the old install. It will ask you if you want to overwrite the MgmtCompanion, you need to accept that. However once it asks you if you want to overwrite the UMH Helm Chart, you need to deny it, so that your Node-Red flows, Grafana dashboards, ... survive. Finally after the re-installation has complete, you can use the above command to restore your old MgmtCompanion configuration.
