Creating a Keystore Containing a User Name and Password

You can create a keystore that contains a username and password by editing data and build files and running an Ant script.

Procedure

  1. Go to the CONFIG_HOME/admin/enterpriseName/samples/ directory.
  2. Open the keystore_data.xml data file and edit the following attributes of the CredentialEntry element:
    Attribute Description
    alias Alias identifying the keystore entry
    protectionParam Password that protects the keystore entry
    username Username
    secret Password
  3. Open the keystore_build.xml build file and edit the following attributes of the AMXKeyStoreTask element in the addCredential target:
    Attribute Description
    adminKeyStorelocation The name of the file to contain the keystore.
    adminKeyStorePassword The password protecting the keystore.
  4. Run ant -f keystore_build.xml addCredential.
