You can use JDBC database password consumer to replace hard-coded passwords in applications that use JDBC to connect to a database. Whenever an application provides a password for authentication purposes, the SAM Agent gets the privileged account password from CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management and replaces the hard-coded password with the privileged account password.
Before you configure the databases that the password consumer uses, you should prepare the endpoint to use a JDBC password consumer.
To prepare a JBoss application to use a database (JDBC) password consumer
Note: Install CA ControlMinder on the endpoint on which the application that connects to the database is installed. You do not need to install CA ControlMinder on the database host.
ACInstallDir/SDK/JDBC
JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy
JBOSS_HOME/server/lib
You customize the datasource configuration files to specify the database connection settings and datasource class.
You have configured the endpoint to use the password consumer. You must now create a password consumer for the application in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. You start the application after you create the password consumer.
