opscenterd.conf

The location of the opscenterd.conf file depends on the type of installation:
  • Package installations: /etc/opscenter/opscenterd.conf
  • Tarball installations: install_location/conf/opscenterd.conf

Procedure

  1. Open opscenterd.conf for editing.
  2. In the [security] section, set the config_encryption_active option to True:
    [security]
    config_encryption_active = True
    Restriction: Lifecycle Manager (LCM) is not compatible when config_encryption_active is true in DSE and OpsCenter. For LCM limitations, see Encrypted DSE configuration values.
  3. Restart opscenterd.
