You don't need to know the root password to change a user password. Any mysql user including the default default user 'wfa' is allowed to change his/her own login password.
If you have some mysql client, login to WFA database using the Credaentials wfa/Wfa123 and then execute the below query.
SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD('New password in clear text
');
You are done.
If you don't have a Mysql client, do the following:
1. Go to folder location <WFA_installation_dir>\WFA\mysql\bin
2.
C:\NetApp\WFA\mysql\bin>mysql.exe -u wfa -p
Enter password: ********
