Re-encrypt the Super User Password

To migrate to FIPS_Only mode, re-encrypt the Federation Manager super user password.

To re-encrypt the super user password

1. If you have not already downloaded the Federation Manager web kit, go to the Technical Support site and download the kit for your operating environment.
2. Copy smreg to federation_mgr_home/siteminder/bin.
3. Enter the following command:

   smreg -cf MIGRATE -su admin_password

   • admin_password

     Specifies the Federation Manager administrator password you provided during installation.

4. Delete smreg from siteminder\bin.

   Note: Deleting smreg prevents anyone from changing the password without knowing the previous one.

The super user password is now set.
