Enabling Remote Invocation for CSDBSync Functionality

CSDBSync supports the configuring of ACS on the CSACS 1120, via remote systems. The CSDBSync
service reads each record from the accountActions file and updates the ACS internal database according
to the action code specified in the record. Synchronization events fail if CSDBSync cannot access the
accountActions file. In a distributed environment, a single ACS, known as the senior synchronization
partner, accesses the accountActions table and sends synchronization commands to its
synchronization partners.

Resetting the CSACS 1120 Administrator Password

There is always a single ACS administrator username and password that consists of the administrator
name and password. Unlike other ACS administrative accounts, this unique administrative account is
granted all privileges, cannot be deleted, and is not listed in the Administrators table of the
Administrative Control page in the ACS web interface. This account is called the CLI administrator
account and allows access to ACS only through a serial console.
You can reset the ACS CLI administrator name, the administrator password, or both. This procedure
details how to reset the password after you log in with the existing credentials. To reset the CLI
administrator name see
If you do not have the existing ACS CLI administrator login credentials, you must have the recovery
CD-ROM to reset these credentials. For information on resetting the administrator login and password
without first logging in, see
