Setting the password save preference

By default, the Configuration and Deployment Tool password save preference is set to not save passwords to a file. If your site security requirements permit you to save passwords to a file, you can change the password save preference setting.

About this task

When you close the profile, the passwords are erased from memory. Each time that you start CCX-GQL Configuration and Deployment Tool or open a saved profile, the passwords are blank (unless you previously changed the preferences setting). Before you can run a task, you must specify the passwords required by the task and the application server properties; otherwise, the task will not run successfully. If your site security requirements permit you to save passwords to a file, you can change the password save preference setting.

To change the password save preference:

1. Click Window > Preferences.
2. Complete one of the following actions:

   Option	Description
   To save passwords to file	Select the Save all passwords to file when saving a task or profile check box.
   To prevent writing passwords to file	Clear the Save all passwords to file when saving a task or profile check box.

3. Click OK.
