The net.ssl.key.store.pass parameter specifies the SSL keystore password for an N1 Grid Service Provisioning System 5.0 application. Use this parameter when you configure an application with SSL keystores and you do not want to be prompted for the passwords to the keystore when you start the application. You must specify this parameter in the following instances:
When you setup the N1 Grid Service Provisioning System applications to start automatically when the system boots
On Windows servers, N1 Grid Service Provisioning System applications do not prompt for keystore passwords, so this parameter must be specified for any applications configured to use SSL on Windows servers.
The CLI application does not prompt for keystore passwords, so this parameter must be specified for any CLI Clients that you configure to use SSL.
