Changing the security key

Follow these instructions to change the security key.

If you change the security key, make sure that you reencrypt all the passwords that you created with the new security key. Otherwise, agents will fail to decrypt the encrypted password correctly and hence manage to monitor resources correctly.

To change security key

  1. Save the VCS configuration and make it writeable.
    # haconf -makerw
  2. Run the following command:
    # vcsencrypt -gensecinfo -force
  3. Save the VCS configuration and make it read only.
    # haconf -dump -makero
