Changing WebLogic User
Passwords
WebLogic "operator" user name and password is
removed from setEnv.* script in PIA. Instead the
operator user name and password values are
encrypted and stored in a properties file in the PIA
installer. If the customer later changes the operator
password in WebLogic, they have to modify the
properties file with encrypted value of the new
password. Updated the steps to modify the
properties file.
