Portmanager service restarted.Password OverrideEven though CyPerf agents are deployed from official machice images provided CyPerf team, CyPerf can also installed on arbitrary machines. All CyPerf machine images come with a default password.cyperf-agent-managerby default tries to connect with that default password. Obviously the default password won't work for arbitrary machines. In those cases the password has to be overriden. The options--override-passwordand--passwordare there for that purpose only but using--passworddirectly in CLI is unsafe. In that case the actual password will be visible in plain text. A better option is to use only the--override-passwordoption in CLI and then a password prompt will come up. The user will be able to type the password in an invisible way. Please see the example below.If a key file is provided using--key-fileoption thencyperf-agent-managerwill try to open a connection with each agent using the key file first. If authentication fails with the key file then it will try the password.Example[PROMPT]:$ cyperf-agent-manager reload --agent-ips '10.36.75.69 10.36.75.70' --override-password
