Parameters

password
Specifies the password to use to access the key database file (cert.kdb). This parameter is required and is limited to 64 characters.
UPDate
Specifies whether to allow the key database file password to be updated. This parameter is optional. The default is NO. Possible values are:
No
When specified, notifies Tivoli® Storage Manager that the key database file password was changed outside of the server. The server validates the new password before recording it for use on a subsequent startup.
Yes
Specifies to use the password that you defined in the password parameter, along with the stored password to change the key database file password. The password is changed immediately in the key database file and Tivoli Storage Manager uses it on a subsequent startup.

Example: Query all background processes

Update the existing stored password with the new password. Restart the server to use the new password.
