Using an encrypted password

You can encrypt your login password before you specify it in the

restenv.properties

file or a task command.

Use the template files to set a password for the keystore that stores the encryption key.

If you're using a Linux machine, copy the template file

set_cli_vars_default.sh

and rename it to

set_cli_vars.sh

. If you're using a Windows machine, copy the template file

set_cli_vars_default.bat

and rename it to

set_cli_vars.bat

Edit the file to specify your keystore password in the following format:

set RUNAJOB_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=<password>

To encrypt your login password, run one of the following commands:

./cli.sh encryptText -t <password>

./cli.sh encryptText -text <password>

In the

restenv.properties

file, set the password to the encrypted string.

Set the

use.encryption

property to true.

The following example shows the

restenv.properties

file with an encrypted password and the

use.encryption

property set to true:

username=saki
password=:1xCGDTC0oD9B2Rmd8Sr4IZWaWWkcEmiK5fy+GkycA==
ACTIVITYMONITORWAIT=2000
TOTALWAIT=60000
