Changing external database credentials

Use the following method to reconfigure Foglight to start up with a new database password. The password can be updated in the server.config file.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: Do not use “<“ and “>” in your password, for example jo<anne>123. These characters corrupt the XML in the server.config file, causing Foglight to fail to start successfully.
To encrypt your database password using the keyman command:
1
Specify the following from the command line:
> bin\keyman -d [FGLHOME\config] encpwd "<new password>" foglight.defaultkey
The encrypted password appears.
2
Open the server.config file.
3
Replace the existing database password with the new encrypted database password on the following line:
server.database.password = "q4056753111e8a24c9a722048fc6df1f0"
4
Restart the Management Server.

Setting up an encrypted database connection

The server.config file contains the optional parameter foglight.database.secureconn, which is used as part of the process of setting up an encrypted database connection for a MySQL® or Oracle® database. However, setting up an encrypted database connection is not supported if you are running a Microsoft® SQL Server® database.

Setting up an encrypted LDAP connection with SSL

Use the following instructions if you need to encrypt communication between the Management Server and the LDAP server.

To encrypt communication between Management Server and LDAP:
1
Acquire the LDAP server certificate in .pem format from the administrator.
2
Import the certificate into the Management Server keystore, <foglight_home>\jre\lib\security\cacerts (default password: changeit), with the following command:
<foglight_home>\jre\bin\keytool -J-server ‑import ‑file <path_to_cert_file> ‑alias ldapsvrcert ‑keystore <path_to_cacerts> ‑storepass <store_pwd>
 
* 
NOTE: If you do not specify the password using the ‑storepass option, keytool prompts you to supply it.
NOTE: In addition to the Root CA certificate, there may be one or more intermediate CA certificates. If so, make sure to import the Root CA certificate and all intermediate CA certificates in sequence.
The following are the examples of command for importing Root CA and intermediate CA certificates:
•
Root CA certificate: <foglight_home>\jre\bin\keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias ldapsvrcert -keystore <path_to_cacerts> -storepass changeit -file <path_to_cert_file>
•
Intermediate CA certificate 1: <foglight_home>\jre\bin\keytool -import -alias ldapsvrcert2 -keystore <path_to_cacerts> -storepass changeit -file <path_to_cert_file>
•
Intermediate CA certificate 2: <foglight_home>\jre\bin\keytool -import -alias ldapsvrcert3 -keystore <path_to_cacerts> -storepass changeit -file <path_to_cert_file>
3
On the navigation panel, under Dashboards, click Administration > Users & Security > Directory Services Settings.
4
Under LDAP Locations, click Edit.
5
Specify the LDAP server URL in the following format:
ldaps://ldap_server_host_name:636
 
* 
NOTE: The port number for LDAP over SSL is usually 636. Confirm the exact port number with your LDAP server administrator.
6
Restart the Management Server.

Using encryption when sending email from Foglight

You can use encryption when sending email from Foglight. To do so, you must enable Foglight to use the SSL protocol and configure the mail server used by Foglight to use an SSL certificate that is not self-signed.

You can configure Foglight to use the SSL protocol either on the Email Configuration Dashboard or by editing the related mail.use.ssl registry variable. See the Administration and Configuration Help for more information.

See the documentation for your mail server for information about configuring it to use an SSL certificate.
