Add encrypted passwords to your edited version of the default
response file.
Before you begin
You can create a response file using IBM® Installation Manager or by editing the file
that is provided with the product. For more information about editing
the file, see the Default response file topic.
About this task
When you edit the default response file to suit your own
environment, you must create encrypted passwords and add them to the
file. Create encrypted passwords for both WebSphere® Application Sever and your databases.
To
create encrypted passwords for a response file, complete the following
steps:
Procedure
- Open a command prompt and change to the IBM_Connections_setup/IBM_Connections_Install/IM/OS/tools directory,
where OS is your operating system.
- Run the following command:
- Add the encrypted password to the relevant line in the
response file. You usually need to enter passwords for both the WebSphere Application Server
administrator and the database user. For example:
<data
key='user.activities.adminuser.password' value='encrypted_password'/>
<data
key='user.activities.dbUserPassword value='encrypted_password'/>
where encrypted_password is
the value generated by the command.
You might also need to change
the default WebSphere Application
Server administrator name from wasadmin, if different from your administrator
name.
- Repeat these steps for each unique password.
What to do next
Use the response file to silently install, modify, update,
roll back, or uninstall IBM Connections.
