According to official Wazuh documentation, changing the API password
requires updating BOTH:
1. The wazuh.yml file in the dashboard container
2. The API_PASSWORD environment variable
Previous documentation only mentioned step 2, which is incomplete.
Added:
- Step to edit /usr/share/wazuh-dashboard/data/wazuh/config/wazuh.yml
- Warning that this file is not in a persistent volume
- Link to official documentation
- vi editor instructions for YAML modification
Fixes incomplete API password change procedure.

Port 9200 is not exposed to the host (security by design).
Updated all OpenSearch API test commands to use docker exec
from within Wazuh containers instead of direct host access.

Remove misleading suggestion that setting passwords in Runtipi form
before installation can bypass the official hash.sh + securityadmin.sh
procedure. Make it clear this is the ONLY supported method.

Add documentation for post-installation health verification via
the Wazuh web interface at /app/logs#/health-check endpoint.
This provides users with a visual alternative to the CLI script.

CRITICAL CORRECTION: Removed the "Méthode 1: Avant l'Installation" which
was not based on official Wazuh documentation and is non-functional.
The ONLY supported method for changing passwords in Wazuh Docker is the
post-installation procedure using hash.sh and securityadmin.sh tools.
Changes:
- Removed misleading "Méthode 1" that suggested pre-install env vars work
- Added clear security warning that default passwords are public
- Emphasized that post-installation procedure is MANDATORY
- Clarified that Runtipi env vars alone are NOT sufficient for security
- Updated title to "OBLIGATOIRE pour Production" (mandatory)
This aligns documentation with official Wazuh security procedures:

Replaced the simplified password change instructions with the official
Wazuh Docker deployment procedure from:
https://documentation.wazuh.com/current/deployment-options/docker/changing-default-password.html
Changes:
- Added reference link to official Wazuh documentation
- Updated Méthode 2 with official hash generation procedure using hash.sh
- Added complete securityadmin.sh command with correct paths
- Specified password requirements (8-64 chars with symbols for API)
- Added warning about complexity of post-install password changes
- Emphasized pre-installation password configuration as best practice
This ensures users follow the correct and secure procedure for changing
passwords in Wazuh Docker deployments.
