Encrypt User Passwords for Product Configurations
You can encrypt user passwords for product configurations and use the encrypted values in place of clear-text passwords in templates, properties files, and so on. If the installation that contains the products belongs to a single environment, and you configured a shared secret for that environment,Command Central uses the environment shared secret to encrypt the password. Otherwise, Command Central uses the global shared secret to encrypt.
Software AG recommends using the sagcc exec security encrypt command to encrypt passwords. However, you can use the steps below to encrypt passwords if you want to use the encrypted password in a template or template properties file that provisions the same configuration. The steps explain how to export an encrypted password for a configuration instance.
1. Go to Environments > ALL > Instances > instance_name.
2. On the Configuration tab, click a configuration type that includes a password, then click the alias for a configuration instance.
3. Click Export and copy the encrypted value for the password property from the template snippet.
