Reset your SharePoint Farm PassPhrase

-
If you forgot or missed or want to change your SharePoint Farm PassPhrase, here are the Powershell commands.

 $PassPhrase = ConvertTo-SecureString -String “yourNewFarmPassPhrase” -asPlainText -Force

 Set-SPPassPhrase -PassPhrase $PassPhrase -Confirm

 Note: Comfirm your new PassPhrase and you are Done.

 To make sure everything work perfectly after PassPhrase reset, you need to reset the Configuration / Timer Cache from all the Servers in the Farm. Please check my article for the same here.
