Updating a New Environment and Using Encryption

To use new encryption information with a new environment:

  1. Enter: cd <Unifier_Home>/configurator
  2. To create the required bluedoor.properties file, complete the steps outlined under Creating the bluedoor.properties File.
  3. To create an encryption.properties file, complete the steps outlined under Creating an encryption.properties File.
  4. In <Unifier_Home>/configurator, open the bluedoor.properties file and locate the lines related to:
    • unifier.secure.seed=sampleX
    • unifier.secure.signature=sampleY
  5. Open the bluedoor.properties file, and replace the values for unifier.secure.seed and unifier.secure.signature with the values from encryption.properties file (sampleX and sampleY).
  6. Encrypt the password, as described under Encrypting a Password.
  7. To verify that the encryption works correctly, decrypt the password, as described under Decrypting a Password.
  8. Copy the encrypted password to the applicable field in the bluedoor.properties file.
  9. Repeat these steps for all secured fields that you use.

    For more information, see the table under Using Encryption.

  10. Enter: cd <Unifier_Home>/weblogic
  11. To transform <Unifier_Home>/configurator/bluedoor.properties into <Unifier_Home>/apps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/skire.properties and datasource.properties, enter: ./ configure.sh unifier.weblogic
  12. If you are using Enterprise Archive (EAR) deployment, to generate the EAR file, run: ./configure.sh ear.weblogic
  13. Restart your WebLogic Server, and verify that you can connect to the Unifier database.
