[email protected] --prplname galaxy \
--password password --prpltype service
You must use this password that you create in the input file for the encrypted

Creating encrypted files for the security infrastructure
Create encrypted files (BLOB files) only if you plan to choose the semiautomatic
mode that uses an encrypted file to configure the Authentication Service. The
administrator must create the encrypted files on the root broker node. The
administrator must create encrypted files for each node that is going to be a part
of the cluster before you configure the Authentication Service for VCS.
To create encrypted files
1 Make a note of the following root broker information. This information is
required for the input file for the encrypted file:
The value of the root hash string, which consists of 40
characters. Execute the following command to find
this value:
venus> # vssat showbrokerhash

The value for the domain name of the root broker
system. Execute the following command to find this
value:
venus> # vssat showalltrustedcreds
root_domain
