Planning for databases
This section provides information to give the database administrator
an overall picture of WebSphere Portal database requirements.
Password considerations when transferring data manually
For security reasons, you should not store passwords in the wkplc.properties, wkplc_comp.properties, and wkplc_dbtype.properties files. Edit each of the properties files prior to running a configuration task, inserting the passwords needed for that task. After the task has run, delete all passwords from each file. For more information, see Deleting passwords from configuration scripts.
Alternatively, you can specify the password on the command line using the
following syntax:
- ConfigEngine.bat task_name -Dpassword_property_key=password_value
- ./ConfigEngine.sh task_name -Dpassword_property_key=password_value
As with other properties, each password property must have the -D prefix
and be set equal to (=) a value. If you have multiple properties in a single
command, use a space character between each -Dproperty=value setting.
