How to Change Messaging Credentials on the PCC Engine

If the Extreme Management Center messaging credentials are changed, configure your PCC engines to use the new credentials. Use the following steps to change the messaging credentials on your PCC engines.

  1. Obtain the current messaging credentials from the Client Connections options view in the suite-wide options (Tools > Options). Check "Show Credentials" to display the current password.
  2. On the PCC engine, stop the PCC server using the command: pccctl stop
  3. Edit the file /opt/pcc/serverconfig.xml.
    1. Within the object element, add a void element for the jmsUserPassword property as follows:
           <void property="jmsUserPassword">
           <string>abc123</string>
           </void>

      Use the contents of the string element for the new password. In the example above, the password is "abc123".

      If there is already a void element for the jmsUserPassword property, update the string element for the new password.
    2. Save your changes to the file.
  4. Start the PCC server using the command: pccctl start
  5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 on each PCC engine.

Here is an example of a serverconfig.xml file with the messaging password configured:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<java version="1.6.0_21" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder">
<object class="com.enterasys.netsight.pcc.web.util.PccProperties">
   <void property="jmsUserPassword">
   <string>J;]p]VP^lB]GZH1S@-x[DbMQ[p~Yl+6u</string>
   </void>
   <void property="netsightServerAddress">
   <string>10.20.30.40</string>
   </void>
</object>
</java>
