10.5.2.4. {passwordSpec} definitions

Used to specify passwords in a standard format for the openssl and keytool commands so that you do not need to remember the command-specific syntax, which is different for each command.

Password Specifications MUST be one of:

  • env:VARNAME - has to be pre-defined and exported as an EnvVar in the $CONTINUENT_ROOT/share/tungsten.env file.

  • run:typeSpec - available as part of the running Tungsten config for {typeSpec} of:

    • keystore|k

    • truststore|t

    • connector_keystore|ck

    • connector_truststore|ct

  • pass:yourPasswordHere - specify the actual password string and be sure to escape any special characters from the shell.

If the PasswordSpec provided does not begin with env:, run: or pass: it will be rejected.
