If a password update fails, the utility does not modify the affected account and exits the change operation. However, all earlier password changes remain and do not revert back.

The change All STA Account Passwords operation breaks the password change into six transactions, one for each account: Weblogic user, STA administrator, database root, STA application user, STA report user, and STA database administrator. In total, you will enter about 20 passwords, including the current passwords for each account and the new passwords which you will enter twice to ensure they are not mis-typed. You should carefully enter all passwords. The update operation will fail if you incorrectly enter an existing password, and the utility does not always allow you to correct a mistake. When the failure occurs, the utility does not modify the affected account and exits the password change operation. However, it does update any earlier password changes that you made before the failure.

If a failure occurs while updating all password, you should verify which passwords were changed and track the password changes in a secure location. There is no way to recover a forgotten password.
