How to Reset a Forgotten INFINI Console Password
The article explains two ways to recover access to INFINI Console when the password is lost: locating the original console_configuration.json file to retrieve the stored credentials, or using the built‑in Reset Password feature in the user management UI, with step‑by‑step instructions and screenshots.
INFINI Console password management
During deployment INFINI Console generates an initial username and password and writes them to console_configuration.json. The file contains the fields Console_Username and Console_Password. The login page does not provide a password‑reset link; a reset can be performed only after a successful login.
1. Retrieve credentials from the saved file
Locate the console_configuration.json file that was downloaded during deployment. Common locations are the local download folder or, on the deployment server, directories such as /etc/inifini/ or /root/.
Open the file and read the values of Console_Username and Console_Password.
Use the extracted username and password to log in to INFINI Console.
2. Reset password through the UI
Log in to INFINI Console with the credentials obtained above.
Navigate to the “User” management page.
In the user list locate the target account (e.g., root) and click the “Reset Password” button.
In the password‑reset dialog enter the new password and confirm it.
Click “Save”. The new password takes effect immediately.
3. Recommendations
Immediately back up console_configuration.json in a secure location (e.g., encrypted storage or a password manager) after deployment.
If the password file is lost and cannot be recovered, redeploying INFINI Console is the only fallback option.
