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:
- Edit the ClearQuest search properties file, CQ-dbset_name-db_name.xml.
- In the <repository> section, locate the password element
and replace it with the contents of the file encrypted-password-file.txt.
- 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.
