pg_admin_password with external database

Hello,

I am using AWX 6.1.0 with an external Postgres database and planing to upgrade it.
However I noticed that version 8.0.0 introduced a new configuration parameter pg_admin_password which I dont know what to do with it.
As said above, I use an external database and the admin is not accessible remotely, nor I think is a good security practice to make it accessible remotely.
I tried to find more information regarding this parameter and its use with external databases, but I couldn’t find much. I was hoping you could help me geting some directions.

Regards,

I have the same situation, but the admin password is only used for the containerized DB, so I just set it to the value of pg_password to keep it from complaining about not being set in AWX 9.0.0, where they removed the default.
