  2. Update this password in connection settings of Business Manager.
    1. Click Business Setup > All Settings.
    2. Click Server Groups.
    3. Select the ID of the server group where the Panel resides (PleskUnix or PleskWin).
    4. Click Edit.
    5. Change the password to the one you specified at step 1.
  3. Set this password as global account password.
    1. Make sure you are in Business Manager and click the Profile link in the upper-right corner of the page.
    2. Repeat the password you specified at step 1.
