Error description
When the MS SQL Agent db_password is configured using the TEP, the password is written with DES encryption rather than AES256. RECREATE INSTRUCTIONS: Setup Windows Domain user as administrator on all machines. Install TEMS 6.2.2 FP3 on Windows box A. Install TEP 6.2.2 FP3 on Windows box B. Install TEMA 6.2.2 FP3 on Windows 2003 Server Endpoint Add MS SQL Agent 6.2.1 to TEMS Depot Execute "Add Managed System" on TEP Specify MS SQL Server Password as "abcd" Examine the MS SQL Agent configuration file on TEMA. Observe that the db_password text is preceeded by the string DES and not AES256.
Local fix
No workaround available.
Problem summary
Wrong password type is used on a 64-bit machine. When configuring the MSSQL agent via remote deploy, the 64-bit version of the cryptographic routines are used with the 32-bit agent and the MSSQL agent configuration fails. The problem occurs on a 64-bit Windows system running a 64-bit NT agent and a 32-bit MSSQL Server agent.
Problem conclusion
Code has been added to make sure that the correct cryptographic routines are always invoked. The fix for this APAR is contained in the following maintenance packages: | fix pack | 6.2.2-TIV-ITM-FP0006
Temporary fix
Only run 64-bit agents on 64-bit Windows or do not use remote deploy to configure 32-bit agents on 64-bit Windows.
