Utilities Updated for Use with Advanced Encryption

The ctrdmp restore utility and the ctfdmp (forward roll) utility now detect when transaction logs are using advanced encryption and when data or index files that are referenced in the transaction logs use advanced encryption. When the transaction logs use advanced encryption, these utilities prompt for the master password after opening the first transaction log, which is essentially at the beginning of the restore or forward roll process. When data or index files referenced in the logs use advanced encryption, the user is prompted for the master password the first time it finds a reference to a file that uses advanced encryption. This requires the ctsrvr.pvf password file to be created and present.

The ctdmpidx dump index utility and ctvfyidx index verify utility now also detect when the index file that is being inspected is encrypted with advanced encryption. In this situation, the utilities turn on c-treeACE’s advanced encryption support and prompt for the master encryption password just as the server would at startup.
