Encrypted Password Files

Each reference definition in the configuration file requires two sets of user names and passwords.

• CA Harvest SCM login uses one set for running the check-out using hsync.
• hsync and hexecp use one set for the remote agent connection.

CA Harvest SCM encrypted password files, created by svrenc -f, provide the user names and passwords. As an administrator, you run svrenc -f filename for each unique username and password. You name the password files and use these names in the configuration file.

Reference definitions can share password files. All hsync operations in a single system can use a single CA Harvest SCM user account. Remote agent login user names and passwords can also be shared.
