Creating a boot identity file
Create a file called boot.properties located in the <DOMAIN_HOME>\servers\srvername\security directory contaning two lines:
- username=username
- password=password
The username must be belongs to a role that has permission to start a server. Save the text file as boot.properties
Boot.properties is created automatically for the Admin Server in dev mode, and in production mode, we have to create the file and place it in the admin sever's \sercurity subdirectory manully.
The first time you start the server, the server reads the Boot identity file and overwrites it with an encrypted version of the username and password
Thereafter, the sever will remember your identity for the subsequent startup cycles.
