    Data Transmission Service:Change a database password

    Last Updated:Jun 20, 2026

    If you change the password of a database account used for data migration, data synchronization, or Change Tracking, you must update the password on the DTS console.

    Prerequisites

    You have created a data migration task, a data synchronization job, or a new Change Tracking channel.
    Note Check the Change Tracking Tasks page to see if your channel is a new version. This operation is not supported for older Change Tracking channels.
    New Change Tracking channels display a New tag in the Subscription ID/Name column.

    Procedure

    1. Log on to the DTS console.

      Note

      If you are automatically redirected to the Data Management (DMS) console, you can click the jiqiren icon in the lower-right corner and then click 返回旧版 to return to the classic DTS console.

    2. Depending on your instance type, click Data Migration, Data Synchronization, or Change Tracking in the left navigation pane.
    3. At the top of the page, select your instance's region.
    4. Find the target instance and click its instance ID.
    5. Depending on which database password you want to change, click Change Source Instance Password or Change Destination Instance Password.
    6. In the Change Instance Password dialog box, enter the old and new passwords for the database account.
      Note
      • Old password: Enter the current password for the database account.
      • Password: Enter the new password for the database account.
      • Confirm Password: Enter the new password again.
    7. Click OK.
