What

Document InfluxDB's default login in the marine-apps InfluxDB section:

  • Default admin account: admin / halos-default
  • InfluxDB is not behind the HaLOS single sign-on — its own login is the only gate
  • How to change the password (app config → Admin Password, applied on restart)
  • The admin API token is generated randomly on first boot

Why

The FAQ default-credentials table only covers the two account systems (Authelia SSO, Linux). InfluxDB's app-specific credentials weren't documented anywhere, and users would reasonably — and wrongly — guess the SSO password halos.

Verification

Confirmed on a test device that setting INFLUXDB_ADMIN_PASSWORD via the app config drives the real InfluxDB login: the prestart sync updates the account, the new password signs in (204), and the old one is rejected (401).

A related bug surfaced during verification — on migrated devices the sync targets the wrong username. Tracked in #31 and halos-org/halos-marine-containers#189.

InfluxDB is not behind the HaLOS single sign-on, so its own admin login
(admin / halos-default) is the only protection. Document the default
credentials, how to change the password from the app config, and that the
admin API token is generated randomly on first boot.
