Encrypted password for response file elements

You must add the encrypted passwords to the relevant elements of the response file. Use the IBM Installation Manager utility to create an encrypted password.

Windows

For example, if you extract the IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager product image to the C:\SKLM\disk1 directory, run the following command to create an encrypted password.

cd C:\SKLM\disk1\im\tools
imcl.exe encryptString password

Add the encrypted password that you created in the response file as shown in the following example.

<data key='user.DB2_ADMIN_PWD,com.ibm.db2.ofng'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
<data key='user.CONFIRM_PASSWORD,com.ibm.db2.ofng'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
...
<data key='user.WAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD,com.ibm.sklm.win32'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
<data key='user.WAS_ADMIN_CONF_PWD,com.ibm.sklm.win32'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
...
<data key='user.SKLM_ADMIN_PASSWORD,com.ibm.sklm.win32'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
<data key='user.SKLM_ADMIN_CONF_PWD,com.ibm.sklm.win32'
value='<encrypted password>'/>

Linux

For example, if you extract the IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager product image to the /SKLM/disk1 directory, run the following command to create an encrypted password.

cd /SKLM/disk1/im/tools
./imcl encryptString password

Add the encrypted password that you created in the response file as shown in the following example.

<data key='user.DB2_ADMIN_PWD,com.ibm.db2.aix.ofng'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
<data key='user.CONFIRM_PASSWORD,com.ibm.db2.aix.ofng'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
...
<data key='user.WAS_ADMIN_PASSWORD,com.ibm.sklm.aix'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
<data key='user.WAS_ADMIN_CONF_PWD,com.ibm.sklm.aix'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
...
<data key='user.SKLM_ADMIN_PASSWORD,com.ibm.sklm.aix'
value='<encrypted password>'/>
<data key='user.SKLM_ADMIN_CONF_PWD,com.ibm.sklm.aix'
value='<encrypted password>'/>

You can create a different encrypted password for each user.
