How to Encrypt/Decrypt IP Ranges Information on the Probes

Search for	Example	Results
A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

In version 10.31, a new attribute domain_encrypt is added in the domainScopeDocument.xml file to act as a flag to tell the probe whether to encrypt or decrypt the IP ranges related information in the domainScopeDocument.xml and domainRangesDocument.xml files on the Data Flow Probe. There is no need to manually modify the attribute. You can invoke the new JMX method setDomainEncrypt to control this attribute.

To encrypt/decrypt IP ranges information on the probe:

On the UCMDB server, launch the Web browser and enter the following address: https://localhost:8443/jmx-console

You may have to log in with a user name and password.
Locate UCMDB:service=Discovery Manager and click the link to jump to the Operations table.
Click the setDomainEncrypt operation.
To encrypt the IP ranges related information in the domainScopeDocument.xml and domainRangesDocument.xml files on all the Data Flow Probes connected to this UCMDB Server, provide customer ID (default: 1) and select True.

Note By default, the IP ranges related information in the domainScopeDocument.xml and domainRangesDocument.xml files are not encrypted.

To decrypt the encrypted IP ranges information, provide customer ID and select False.
Click Invoke.

The domain_encrypt attribute value in the domainScopeDocument.xml is successfully changed.

Then the Probes connected to the UCMDB server will encrypt or decrypt IP ranges related information in the domainScopeDocument.xml and domainRangesDocument.xml accordingly. Specifically, the following will be encrypted/decrypted:
- The following sections containing IP ranges information in domainScopeDocument.xml: domain_probes, domain_scopelist, and domain_probeclusters
- All content in the root element DomainsRangeDocument in domainRangesDocument.xml.
