Migrate WebSphere Commerce Version 7 Feature Pack 8 site security

Manually migrate your Feature Pack 8 security configurations to WebSphere Commerce Version 9.0.0.1+.

Procedure

1. If you enabled AES encryption on your Feature Pack 8 development database and file system, migrate your encryption settings files to the WebSphere Commerce Version 9.0.0.1+ development environment.

   1. Copy the following files from your Feature Pack 8 development environment to the same location on the WebSphere Commerce Version 9.0.0.1+ development environment:

      • WCDE_installdir\setup\vmm.properties

      • WCDE_installdir\components\sso\properties\ltpa.properties

      • workspace_dir\WC\properties\ILogJRulesConfiguration.properties

      • workspace_dir\WC\XML\config\BusinessAuditDataCapture.xml

      • workspace_dir\WC\XML\config\FTP.xml

2. If you used the Key Locator Framework (KLF) in Feature Pack 8, migrate your key provider customizations. For more information about the KLF, see Key Locator Framework (KLF).

   1. Open your Feature Pack 8 workspace_dir/xml/config/wc-server.xml file, and look for the KeysConfigFile parameter. This parameter points to a separate custom key configuration XML.

   2. Open our custom key XML file.

   3. The custom files that are referenced in this keys XML file must be copied to the same directories on the WebSphere Commerce Version 9.0.0.1+ development environment, and then deployed through our CI/CD pipeline which is covered in one of the last steps when you migrate the development environment.

3. Migrate any other custom security files that were part of your Feature Pack 8 development security solution by copying the files to the WebSphere Commerce Version 9.0.0.1+ development environment.
