Setting up ccm set_password

Use the ccm set_password command to store encrypted passwords when you use the esd service. Build managers commonly use this command to start Rational® Synergy sessions from scripts without being prompted for passwords.

About this task

ESD is applicable only if you are using it for Rational Change.

Procedure

  1. Type the usage form for the ccm set_password command:

    $ ccm set_password host

    where host is the destination host.

    The ccm set_password command stores your passwords in an encrypted file (.ccmrc) under your home directory.

  2. Specify different passwords for different destination hosts.

    If you do not provide a destination host name, the password entered is treated as the default password for all destination machines that do not have an explicit password.
