IFS Cloud 21R1 environment.

The IFSINFO pw is not listed in the custom_values.yaml file but we need to change the password.

Is the IFSINFO pw hardcoded anywhere that may cause the account to become locked if it is changed?

I cannot say 100% since we don’t have the cloud version.  It has not been stored in the config file for several versions.  The package and grants remove the need to store the password.

IFSINFO get a random generated password in a fresh install.
I don’t remember if it is also created as locked.
If you need to change the IFSINFO password you do it through e.g. sqlplus.
Any changes to the IFSINFO schema done by the installer is don by IFSAPP impersonating IFSINFO, hence the IFSINFO password don’t need to be know by the installer.
