Post your ideas
  1. Post an idea.

Add a "configure account later" option for ClearCase installs.

In environments where key credentials are never written down in normal-user-accessible files, even as "encrypted" strings, storing the albd account credentials in a response file is not considered secure enough. Prior to the latest releases, the installs were done using fictitious albd account credentials. This would install the services, but set the albd to run as localsystem, and then the service account would be set manually after the fact.

Official support for this usecase would be appreciated.
