Davis > Assignee: Andy LoPresto > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.7.0 > > Attachments: > TEST-org.apache.nifi.properties.ConfigEncryptionToolTest.xml > > > Currently the encryption cli in nifi toolkit requires that, in order to > migrate from one master key to the next, the previous master key or password > should be provided. In cases where the provisioning tool doesn't have the > previous value available this becomes challenging to provide and may be prone > to error. In speaking with [~alopresto] we can allow toolkit to support a > mode of execution such that the master key can be updated without requiring > the previous password. Also documentation around it's usage should be updated > to be clear in describing the purpose and the type of environment where this > command should be used (admin only access etc). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
