InfoCenter Home > 6.6.0.2.1.3.1: XMLConfig - Passwords and variable substitutionPasswords are required for the WebSphere security configuration, but exposing passwords during an XML import or export by putting an unencrypted password in the XML text file would create an unacceptable security risk. Thus, WebSphere Application Server uses special password tags in the exported XML file that signify XML variables that replace the real passwords during an import. Consequently, the passwords are only part of the XMLConfig command line, which you can clear after invoking the utility. Three of the password variables have constant names while the others depend on the name to what they are related. The three constant variable names are: server-password
ltpa-password
ldap-bindpwd
<enterprise app name>_AppSecurityPwd [where <enterprise app name> is the name of an enterprise application with a defined application identity]
All password variables must be substituted on the XMLConfig command line using the -substitute parameter. Multiple substitutions are separated by a semicolon. For example, the server-password and LTPA-password variables may be substituted with the following command line: XMLConfig -import was.xml -adminNodeName myhost -substitute "server-password=pwd1;LTPA-password=pwd2" |
