Enabling Auto Login by Using the Boot Identity File

Enabling Auto Login by Using the Boot Identity File

During a startup or shutdown of a WebLogic instance (AdminServer, Forms or Reports), the server prompts you to enter a username and a password. You can use a boot identity file to enable auto-login without providing login information. A boot identity file is more secure than storing unencrypted information in a startup or shutdown script. The boot identity file can be different for each server instance in the domain.

First, locate your server’s instances on your operating systems:
<ORACLE_HOME>\user_projects\domains\base_domain\servers

(.) Create a text-file with the following information:
username=weblogic_usrn      
password=weblogic_passwd
(.) Create a folder and name itsecurity.
(.) Save the text-file as boot.properties
(.) Restart your servers
