Adding the encrypted password to the search properties file

After you encrypt the ClearQuest administrator password by using the ClearQuest record extractor, you must edit the ClearQuest search properties file to use the key file and encrypted password file.
To add the encrypted administrator password to the ClearQuest search properties file, perform the following steps:
  1. Edit the ClearQuest search properties file, CQ-dbset_name-db_name.xml.
  2. In the <repository> section, locate the password element and replace it with the contents of the file encrypted-password-file.txt.
  3. Also in the <repository> section, locate the keyfile element. Specify the value of the keyfile element as the full path specification, including the file name, of the file key-file.txt.
    Attention: If the password element is left blank, then the value of the keyfile element is ignored and a password is not used to connect to the ClearQuest database. This can be useful for setup and testing, but should not be used in a production environment.
