    How can I obtain the initial CVM password?

    If you purchase the CVM through Custom Configuration, you can obtain the initial password based on different login methods as follows:
    Login Method
    Description
    Random Password
    The initial password will be sent to you via email and Message Center on the console.
    SSH Key Pair
    Disabled by default you can log in to the CVM using your username and password, but the initial password will still be sent to you via email and Message Center on the console.
    Custom Password
    The password you set is the initial password.
    For more information, see Managing Login Password.

    What should I do if I cannot receive the initial password via Message Center?
