Tips for working with an encrypted One Identity Manager database

If you encrypt a One Identity Manager database, you must declare the database key to the One Identity Manager Service.

 CAUTION: If the One Identity Manager Service finds a private key in the installation directory on startup, it places the key in the Windows internal key container of its service account and deletes the file from the hard drive. So save the private key at another location in addition to the service install directory.

IMPORTANT:

  • The file with the private key must exist in the server's installation directory on all servers with an active One Identity Manager Service.

  • If you change the One Identity Manager Service user account, you must save the key file in the service’s install directory again.

To declare the database key

  1. Declare the following information in the One Identity Manager Service configuration file. Use the Job Server Editor in the Designer or the Job Service Configuration program to edit the configuration file. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.
