Description

The Update-SCSMRunAsAccount cmdlet updates the credentials that are associated with a RunAs account. Use this cmdlet to change the stored credentials for a RunAs account when that account's user name or password changes. Passwords are securely stored so that impersonation can take place for workflows and other operations.

Examples

Example 1: Changes a RunAs account password

PS C:\>$Credential = Get-Credential
PS C:\>$Account = Get-SCSMRunAsAccount -UserName "Administrator"
