When you install IBM® Business Process Manager product
components, passwords in the installed files are generally encrypted
by default. If you need to change these passwords, you can use the IBM BPM EncryptPassword
utility to encrypt the new passwords.
Procedure
To encrypt passwords, complete the following steps:
- From a command prompt, go to the install_root/BPM/Lombardi/lib directory.
- Run the java -cp utility.jar com.lombardisoftware.utility.EncryptPassword password command,
where password is the password that you want to
encrypt.
For example, run the following command:
java -cp utility.jar com.lombardisoftware.utility.EncryptPassword JohnDoe
The
result is the following code:
taVCmTLTWWgkTvfvavu/7g==:sROM4ZbvqRDFYMobWXqvwg==
Important: If you are running the utility from a different directory,
replace utility.jar with the exact path to the utility.jar file.
- If the utility fails with a ClassNotFound exception,
set your Java home to the following directory before you run the utility
again: install_root/java/bin/java
- Replace the existing encrypted password in your IBM BPM configuration
files, such as PROFILE_HOME\config\cells\cell_name\nodes\node_name\servers\server_name\process-center\config\100Custom.xml.
Restriction: You cannot use the EncryptPassword
utility to decrypt passwords that are already encrypted.
