Change a database account password

1. Connect to the database.
2. Open the connection context menu and select Change database password.
3. In the dialog, enter the password in the Current password box, then enter the new password in the New password and Confirm password boxes.
4. Submit the dialog.

After the password changes, CloudBeaver shows a notification, saves the new database account password in the connection credentials, and disconnects the connection. The next connection uses the new password.
