This page provides a reference for mapping legacy StreamBase sb* commands to their epadmin equivalents.
For StreamBase 10, the epadmin command replaces the legacy sb* command line tools. The epadmin command is aware of StreamBase Runtime concepts such as nodes, clusters, and availability zones.
By contrast, the legacy tools can only connect to a running StreamBase server through its StreamBase URI that begins with sb:// or sbs://. Likewise, the legacy tools connect to a LiveView server through its LiveView URI that begins with lv:// or lvs://. The legacy tools remain available to use within those limitations.
The epadmin command provides full support for service names, multi-node, and multi-engine commands. It is a best practice to migrate any use of the legacy commands to epadmin.

The sbcipher command is fully deprecated. Do not use it to encipher strings in configuration files. However, strings previously enciphered by sbcipher are recognized and deciphered.
| Legacy Command | epadmin Command | epadmin Target | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| sbcipher DO NOT CONTINUE TO USE | encrypt | secret | This command works with a master secret for the node, as described in encrypt.
Strings previously encrypted with sbcipher can be copied as-is into configuration files, and continue to be decrypted. Thus the sbcipher format continues to be recognized. However, do not continue to use sbcipher to encrypt strings; use the epadmin encrpypt secret command as part of Spotfire Streaming's comprehensive, node- and cluster-aware security model. |
