Tasks : Modifying Application Server Credentials

Modifying Application Server Credentials
The utility ManagementAgentConfig caches the WebSphere application server’s administrative username and password. If these credentials subsequently change, you must explicitly update the following property values in two locations:
Do these steps:
1.
Use the utility TIBCO_HOME/policymanager/3.0/bin/encryptSharedSecret to encrypt the new password. (This utility is included with the Policy Manager product. For details, see TIBCO ActiveMatrix Policy Manager User’s Guide)
2.
First Location: Agent Instance
3.
 
TIBCO_HOME/amma-was/instances/appsvr_profile_name/cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name/servers/server_name/pluginagent.properties
4.
Locate the property key WEBSPHERE_USERNAME, and replace the old username with the new value.
5.
Locate the property key WEBSPHERE_PASSWORD and SPM_SP_WEBSPHERE_PASSWORD , and replace the old password value with the new encrypted value.
The SPM_SP_WEBSPHERE_PASSWORD is encrypted using the Tibco Password Obfuscater located under the tibcohome/amxadministrator/<amx version>/bin/passwordobfuscator directory.
6.
Second Location: Application Server Profile
7.
In a text editor, open the file IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/appsvr_profile_name/cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name/servers/server_name/properties/pluginagent.properties.
8.
Locate the property key WEBSPHERE_USERNAME, and replace the old username with the new value.
9.
Locate the property key WEBSPHERE_PASSWORD, and replace the old password value with the new encrypted value.
