Changing the security key

Follow these instructions to change the security key.

If you change the security key, make sure that you re-encrypt all the passwords that you created with the new security key. Otherwise, the agent fails to decrypt the encrypted password which results in failure of resources monitoring.

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
