Orion account passwords in 2020.2.6

Question

In the release notes we read, "Important: Orion Platform 2020.2.6 includes updated password policies that impact individual Orion accounts. After you upgrade to UDT 2020.2.6, all passwords for individual Orion accounts will expire in 30 days. To learn more, see the Orion Platform 2020.2.6 Release Notes."

Does this mean that Orion account passwords will expire every 30 days, or does this just mean that existing passwords for Orion accounts will expire within 30 days of the upgrade?

You can get around the 30 days by executing this SQL, replace your account name shown. Do one line for each account.

update accounts set passwordexpirationdate=NULL where accountid='ACCOUNTNAME'

That is a vague statement,  if they do not change their password   within the 30 days it will be expire or do you have to go in and edit all the local IDs.

So does that mean if they do not change their password after the upgrade it will expire.  What about the admin account, is that include?
