Jboss application startup and shutdown of BMC-IDM asks for password (called keystore password, some Java stuff).

Howto automate with init script?

Stop application

> stop_idm_suite.sh
Suite system password:

start application

> start_idm_suite.sh
-Didm.suite.home=/opt/jboss-app/bmc/idm/idm-suite7.5       -Djava.protocol.handler.pkgs=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/opt/jboss-app/bmc/idm/idm-suite7.5/security/keystore/idm.keystore -Dlog4j.configuration=-there-aint-no-such-file- -Djava.awt.headless=true -Didoox.debug.logger=log4j -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=258m -XX:PermSize=128m -Doracle.home=/opt/jboss-app/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1 -Dess.root=/opt/jboss-app/bmc/idm/idm-suite7.5/ess_api

Suite system password:

Tried with start_idm_suite.sh < password-file but no luck

According to the Oracle-IDM documentation this should happen only once during startup. Afterwards it should use the encrypted stored password.

Update 2012-11-13: I think that BMC-IDM must have a similar mechanism. Try to start the Application with strace -e open -f start_idm_suite.sh. I would expect to see a failed open just before the password gets asked.

That will probably the file where the password needs to be stored to.

It true that we only need to give password once at startup. But wish to automate that. We don't use Oracle-IDM, we use BMC "Identity Management Suite" if it does matter. – fyodor78 Nov 12 '12 at 8:40
@fyodor78 the product matters, indeed. I will update your question with that information. From the path I thought you were using Oracle-IDM... I will update my answer as well. – Nils Nov 13 '12 at 21:19
it's a Solaris 10 box, so there is no "strace". – fyodor78 Nov 14 '12 at 8:17
