How to reconnect to a new deployment

[#1]

Had issues with connecting to original deployment of Cloudera+Tableau Live, hence killed it.  When I add a new cluster via GoGrid portal, I can not connect to HUE or Cloudera Manager.  How to go about, if you kill your cluster?

The hashing algorithm has changed since then, but the general technique should work (and I thought it would migrate old hashes for existing passwords). I just tried this technique and it's working for me with newly generated hashes. This salt and hash should reset your 'admin' user's password to 'admin'. I would suggest you then immediately change it to something more secure since the port is open on a public network interface.

Salt: 7135628360540806339

Hash: 3a4e5ecfdf1a023e1302b7bef253de568357a995382702958517bbf238591101

Thank You Sean, I confirm the HASH & SALT for Cloudera Manager 5.3.x worked!  I will immediately change my password as you suggested.

I still think a CLI command or script is in order for the CDH5 framework.

[ Correction ] The Cloudera Manager version in the ClouderaLive cluster as of today is:

Cloudera Enterprise Data Hub Edition Trial 5.1.0 (#75 built by jenkins on 20140716-1259)

I think that's a good idea - I'll file a feature request for this if one doesn't exist already. We'll also keep a look out for any reports of similar problems and look what might cause / be able to prevent it.

Thanks for the feedback!
