MDM Hub User Name and Encrypted Password

MDM Hub User Name and Encrypted Password

You must use a registered MDM Hub user account to run jobs. The user must have access to the Operational Reference Store (ORS) and requires create and update rights to most configured MDM Hub objects, such as MDM Hub Base Object tables, XREF tables, or mappings. You can encrypt a password associated with an MDM user account using the MDM Hub public certificate.
Before you encrypt a password, set the environment variable MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE in the MDM Hub public certificate. Then, run the
get_encr_pwd script
, and enter the password to encrypt.
  1. Set the
    MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE
    environment variable in the MDM Hub public certificate file.
    • If the Command Line Batch Execution utility from the Resource Kit runs on the application server:
      • Set the
        MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE
        environment variable in the following certificate:
        <MDM Installation Directory>/hub/server/hub/resources/certificates/certificate_hub.cert


        For example:

        • On Linux.
          export MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE=<MDM Installation Directory>/hub/server/resources/certificates/certificate_hub.cert
        • On Windows.
          set MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE=<drive:MDM Installation Directory>/hub/server/resources/certificates/certificate_hub.cert
    • If the Command Line Batch Execution utility from the Resource Kit does not run on the application server:
      1. Retrieve a copy of the MDM Hub public certificate file from the following location:


        MDM_Installation_Directory>/hub/server/hub/resources/certificates/certificate_hub.cert
        If you do have access to the file, use the FTP transfer. If you do not have access to the file, contact you server administrator to retrieve the file for you.

      2. Copy the MDM Hub Public Certificate file into the Command Line Batch Execution utility
        resources
        directory.


        For example:

        • On Linux.
          export MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE=
          <Batch Utility Directory>/resources/certificate_hub.cert
        • On Windows.
          set MDM_HUB_PUBLIC_CERT_FILE=
          <drive:Batch Utility Directory>/resources/certificate_hub.cert
  2. To encrypt a password, run the
    get_encr_pwd script
    that you can find in the
    scripts
    directory.
    • On Linux.
      /get_encr_pwd.sh
    • On Windows.
      get_encr_pwd.cmd
  3. Enter the password to encrypt.
    The encrypted password appears. For example:
    IlLZSiEHEyQ4S2eqs0I9EUFB8Xezp19Q8t5zqqnPuaABzWREp8Wa9BMbx3TBvibJhKOy8fJOD/l1+MvGgCMSllvFxbx2UeD8g6IN2/45n3qxiON1We2e5OhUAYqptYXSxp40gBvT9PVcCrmFCi9TuVbZ7ceEi6N/tY0po1p
When you configure the script file, use this encrypted password to set up the
MDM_PASSWORD
environment variable.
