Hello,  Sorry I missed that. yes you need to create a file manually on location (/ifs/.ifsvar/modules/tsm/passwd) and input password.  Which also speaks to the matter of security -- if I knew only a cluster's IP address, and it was running SyncIQ, I could indiscriminately bombard it with a sync job, if not for the shared secret, right?  Yes you are correct..  Thanks Hemant
Hi, We are running SyncIQ between clusters successfully, but have a couple of questions regarding security.  First, there is a "Shared Secret" field when setting up a policy, but we are having trouble finding the documentation.  The Admin Guide says "refer to the Knowledge Base", where we do find a bit of info, namely: If a shared secret is specified on the source cluster for a SyncIQ job, you must also specify a shared secret on the target cluster. Add the password/shared secret to the following file on the target cluster. For SyncIQ 2.0, 2.5: /ifs/.ifsvar/modules/tsm/passwd the question is, do we simply add a new line to this file with the text of the Shared Secret?  Also, there seems to be not other mechanism to secure a SyncIQ job, correct?  The GUI just lets us pick a target cluster, specify a target folder, and start the job.  No remote password required or anything.  Is there any other way?  Thanks, Don
