Setting up Access Credentials (for CM and Database)

The first time you run BDT, use the -e option to store encrypted passwords in the BDT configuration file. Run the following command:

./bdt.sh -e [-c configfilepath][-p policyfilepath]

The -e option can be used with the --validate or --transform option. This first puts the encrypted passwords in bdt.config and then performs the specified operation:

• Validates the configuration and policy files

• Performs data transformation

For example, the following command gets new passwords (-e), then transforms the data (-t) using the policy specified in the -p option:

./bdt.sh -e -t -p policyfilepath

Note

The policyfilepath option is not needed to be provided for the centralized policy.

Based on the configuration given in the config file, this command prompts for different passwords such as user password, keystore, truststore, and key password, to encrypt and update them in the config file.

These passwords will be encrypted and stored in the bdt.config file specified in the -c option. If -c is omitted, the default file bdt/conf/bdt.config is used.
