Setting up PGP encryption and decryption

Set up PGP encryption and decryption for Planning Analytics on Cloud.

Before you begin

Install a PGP application, for example GnuPGP (from https://www.gnupg.org/download) or Symantec Encryption Desktop (from https://www.symantec.com), in your on premises environment.

Procedure

  1. Send a service request to IBM Support and ask that PGP encryption be enabled and configured.
  2. In the shared folder, go to \\data\s\install\encryption\samples.
  3. Copy *.pro to your TM1 Server data directory (for example, S:\prod\tm1\Data).
  4. Copy *.txt and *.bat to the server directory (for example, S:\prod\tm1).
  5. Restart your TM1 Server for the demo processes to appear. The *.pro processes will have access to the IBM passphrase regardless of additional shared folder file security that may be defined.
