Attribute
KeyPassword (KP)
Purpose
The password used to access the individual keys in the keystore file when SSL is enabled (Encryption Method=1) and SSL client authentication is enabled on the database server. Keys stored in a keystore can be individually password-protected. To extract the key from the keystore, the driver must have the password of the key.
For Windows platforms, the values specified for security-related options when
creating a data source determine the behavior of both the driver and the Schema Tool.
To fully enable SSL on UNIX and Linux platforms, you must specify values for
security-related options separately for the driver and the Schema Tool. For the driver,
these values are specified in the data source or connection string used to configure the
driver. For the Schema Tool, these values are specified when creating a schema definition
with the Table Wizard. See "Using security with the Schema Tool" for details.
Valid Values
where:
- key_password
- is the password of a key in the keystore.
