People leaving the company can take some important undocumented knowledge with them. Lets say your SharePoint admin leaves the company for a better position somewhere else. Now you discover that he never took the time to document the farm's passphrase.
While you can't retrieve the passprase, it is possible though to reset the passphrase using PowerShell:
$passphrase = ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText –Force
Set-SPPassPhrase -PassPhrase $passphrase –Confirm
Make sure the account you're using is both farm admin and local admin
Make sure the account you're using is both farm admin and local admin
That's all!
