1. Start BRCONNECT with the command:

Brconnect [-u system/] –f chpass –u

2. Enter the new sap password twice for confirmation.

Using the command line, Enter brconnect [-u system/] –c –f chpass –u –p

  • The sap password of the SYSTEM database user. You can use another user with DBA privileges.

If you omit the -u option, then the logon occurs using SYSTEM with its default sap password.
