If you need to encrypt or decrypt a password and you are using JDK 8, you must use a CLI.
Location of encryption tool:
- On Windows: <drive>:\Oracle\<Unifier_Home>\bin\encrypt_password.bat
- On Linux: <Unifier_Home>/bin/encrypt_password.sh
Prerequisite: Make sure that environment variable UNIFIER_HOME is properly defined. For example:
- On Windows: SET UNIFIER_HOME= /scratch/gbuora/Unifier_21.12.7
- On Linux: export UNIFIER_HOME= /scratch/gbuora/Unifier_21.12.7
Encryption applies to the following fields in the bluedoor.properties file. If you use the listed features, you must encrypt the corresponding fields.
