passphrase set command

The passphrase set command resets the passphrase for a node where you run the command. Passphrases are initially set when you install AS4 Microservice.

Usage notes

Follow these guidelines when you use this command to set a passphrase:

  • The passphrase cannot be the same passphrase as the previous passphrase.
  • You cannot use single or double quotation marks in the passphrase.
  • If the passphrase has multiple words that are separated by spaces, you must use double quotation marks around the phrase. You can use this syntax only when you are specifying the passphrase on the command line.

When you run this command, the configuration of the system is recorded before and after you run the command. This information is saved in the install_dir\Members\logs directory.

Important: The configuration information that is recorded includes user information, but this information is intended mainly for troubleshooting and not security auditing.
