System Administration > Managing secrets using Teamcenter vault
Installing Teamcenter vault as a single instance using HashiCorp Community edition
If your site uses HashiCorp Vault Community edition, you can install Teamcenter vault as a single instance for secrets management in single-box or distributed environments. Install Teamcenter as described in Teamcenter Installation Using Deployment Center, ensuring the following items are configured appropriately in Deployment Center. On the Components tab, ensure HTTPS Config is configured. Distributed environments have multiple HTTPS Config components. On the Components tab, select the Teamcenter Secrets Manager (by Hashicorp) component and configure all required parameters, including the following: Verify Machine Name is set to the name of a machine specified by an HTTPS Config component. By default, Vault Configuration is set to Open Source. This setting installs the Teamcenter implementation of HashiCorp Vault Community edition. Verify that Port and Cluster Port are set to available open ports on the specified machine. Specify a location in which Teamcenter will store snapshots of vault contents. By default, the Vault Snapshot Location value is set to a location in your Teamcenter installation directory. If necessary, change this value as required for your site. To restore vault snapshots, you must have vault administrator credentials. Review the security statements by Enable Vault Admin User and proceed only if you accept the stated responsibilities. To specify vault administrator credentials, check Enable Vault Admin User and specify a vault administrator user name and password. See Back up and restore Teamcenter vault data for additional information on working with snapshots. Caution Teamcenter vault administrator credentials are provided for snapshot restoration and diagnostic purposes only. Changing passwords or secrets with tools other than Deployment Center is not supported. Vault secrets are updated when Deployment Center scripts run. This process ensures consistency, traceability, and proper synchronization across your Teamcenter environment. Changing passwords or secrets outside of Deployment Center may cause Teamcenter to become unresponsive and Deployment Center may generate errors with future deployments.
