This section describes the steps to reset the administrator username and password for a RabbitMQ instance.

Prerequisites

The status of the RabbitMQ instance is Running.

Ensure that no ongoing message production or consumption uses the account with the password to be reset. Otherwise, resetting the username and password may cause production or consumption issues.
