Default credential information is available on this page.

Jenkins Administrator Credentials​

The default username and password for the Jenkins administrator are as follows:

  • User: admin
  • Password: El4stic123

Change the Jenkins Administrator Credentials​

In CloudOps for Kubernetes release 3.2.x or higher, the Jenkins administration username and password can be controlled by variables in your docker-compose.override.yml file.

  1. Variable TF_VAR_jenkins_admin_username can be used to modify the administration user's username.
  2. Variable TF_VAR_jenkins_admin_password can be used to modify the administration user's password.

Follow the below procedure to update either the username or password:

  1. Identify a maintenance window during which no Jenkins jobs will be running to apply the change. The Jenkins server pod will be restarted when the change is applied, causing any running jobs to fail.
  2. Obtain the most recent copy of the docker-compose.override.yml file for your CloudOps for Kubernetes cluster.
  3. Modify one or both of the TF_VAR_jenkins_admin_username and TF_VAR_jenkins_admin_password variables. If the desired variable does not exist in your copy of docker-compose.override.yml, then you can add it. The values need to be specified in plain-text.
  4. (Optional) Set variable TF_VAR_rebuild_nodegroups to false to avoid unnecessary work.
  5. Follow the procedure described in Updating Cluster Configuration to apply the change.

Jenkins Non-Administrator Credentials​

In CloudOps for Kubernetes release 3.5.x or higher, additional Jenkins users with different levels of non-administrator privileges are available. The non-administrator accounts should be used by most users, depending on the level of job access they require. These accounts cannot reconfigure Jenkins in any way.
