Properties Encryption

You can specify the encryption type used by a Deployment Automation server, agent, or agent relay. The encryption setting is used to protect secured values.

Supported encryption types

Keys

External encryption and decryption keys are provided by the user or generated automatically when a server starts (the folder enc-keys is created and stores the keys).

Each key is stored with a file name using this pattern:
Pattern Description
<encryption type>-<key index>-E Stores the encryption key.
<encryption type>-<key index>-D Stores the decryption key.
<encryption type>-<key index> Used as a fallback if no files with the above names are found (used when a –E or –D key with the corresponding index cannot be found).
