Changing the Accumulo Passwords

When deploying Accumulo - either as part of a Gaffer stack or as a standalone, the passwords for all the users and the instance.secret are set to default values and should be changed. The instance.secret cannot be changed once deployed as it is used in initalisation.

The passwords can be configured in a standard deployment via the accumulo.properties file.

The following table outlines the values and defaults if using the container images:

Name value default value
Instance Secret instance.secret "DEFAULT"
Tracer user trace.user "root"
Tracer user password trace.token.property.password "secret"
