Use the Jython or Jacl scripting language to change
the default key store passwords. A key store file is created with a default
password when you install the application server. Change this password to
protect your security configuration.
About this task
When you install the application server, each server creates a
key store and trust store for the default SSL configuration with the default
password WebAS. To protect the security of the key store files and
the SSL configuration, you must change the password. The following examples
update the default password:
Procedure
- Change multiple key stores passwords. The changeMultipleKeyStorePasswords command
updates all of the key stores that have the same password. For example:
Using Jacl:
$AdminTask changeMultipleKeyStorePasswords {-keyStorePassword WebAS
-newKeyStorePassword secretPwd -newKeyStorePasswordVerify secretPwd}
Using Jython:
AdminTask.changeMultipleKeyStorePasswords ['(-keyStorePassword WebAS
-newKeyStorePassword secretPwd -newKeyStorePasswordVerify secretPwd]')
- Change the password of a single key store. The changeKeyStorePassword command
updates the password of an individual key store. For example:
Using Jacl:
$AdminTask changeKeyStorePassword {-keyStoreName testKS
-keyStoreScope (cell):localhost:(server):server1
-keyStorePassword WebAS -newKeyStorePassword secretPwd
-newKeyStorePasswordVerify secretPwd}
Using Jython:
AdminTask.changeKeyStorePassword ('[-keyStoreName testKS
-keyStoreScope (cell):localhost:(server):server1
-keyStorePassword WebAS -newKeyStorePassword secretPwd
-newKeyStorePasswordVerify secretPwd]')
