Disabling the saving of operation credentials
IBM® Db2® Data Management Console administrators can now disable the user option of saving operation credentials from a connection profile to the repository database.
About this task
Currently, when a user is prompted to enter their operation credentials, a check box is displayed, providing them with the option of saving their credentials to the repository database. Administrators can disable this option by manually editing the dswebserver_override.properties file. This ensures that, once their console session expires, users will be required to enter their operation credentials again to gain access to their Db2 connection.
Procedure

- From the \Config folder of your Db2 Data Management Console installation, select and open the dswebserver_override.properties file.
-
Add the
operation.credentials.save.to.repository
property and set it tofalse
