Setting the Administrator's Password to Never Expire

To perform this instruction, you must have a Windows client or server machine with Azure Active Directory PowerShell module Version 2 installed. You can use the same machine that you used in Preparing CSP Account Information.

Perform the following steps:

1. Log on to the Windows machine as Administrator.
2. Run Windows PowerShell.

3. Run the following cmdlet to connect to the Azure Active Directory:

   Connect-AzureAD -AzureEnvironment "AzureGermanyCloud"

   Type your administrative credentials when prompted.

4. Run the command:

   Get-AzureADUser -Filter "userPrincipalName eq 'oa_account@<partnersubdomain>.onmicrosoft.de'"

   Make sure that only one user is present in the list:

   ObjectId	DisplayName	UserPrincipalName				UserType
   ---------	------------	-------------------------------------------	---------
   11111111	Demo Name Set	oa_account@<partnersubdomain>.onmicrosoft.de	Member

5. Set the password to never expire:

   Get-AzureADUser -Filter "userPrincipalName eq 'oa_account@<partnersubdomain>.onmicrosoft.de'" | Set-AzureADUser -PasswordPolicies DisablePasswordExpiration

Important: If your security policies do not allow setting passwords to never expire, you must regularly set a new admin user password in the Microsoft cloud and the global settings of the application instance before the old admin user password expires.
